Binding: PaperbackDewey Decimal Number: 160 EAN: 9780521041119 Edition: 1 ISBN: 0521041112 Label: Cambridge University Press Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 308 Publication Date: May 12, 2008 Publisher: Cambridge University Press Studio: Cambridge University Press Editorial Review: Product Description: Four distinguished authors have been brought together to produce this elegant study of a much-neglected figure. The book is divided into three sections: Neurath's biographical background and the economic and social context of his ideas; his theory of science; and the development of his role in debates on Marxist concepts of history and his own conception of science. Coinciding with the emerging serious interest in logical positivism, this timely publication will redress a current imbalance in the history and philosophy of science.
