Rationality and Reality: Conversations with Alan Musgrave
Colin Cheyne & John Worrall (eds.)
Springer (2006)
Abstract
Alan Musgrave has consistently defended two positions that he regards as commonsensical: critical realism and critical rationalism. In this volume a group of internationally-renowned authors discuss themes that are relevant in one way or another to Musgrave’s work. Rather than a standard celebratory festschrift, this book offers a new examination of topics of current interest in philosophy. The contributory essays are followed by responses from Alan Musgrave himself.Author's Profile
