‎Kirk on Heraclitus, and Fire as the Cause of Balance. (In: Mind. A Qarterly Review of Psychology and Philosophy. Vol. LXXII. No. 287, July, 1963.)‎

‎Edinburgh & N. Y., T. Nelson & Sons, 1963. 8vo. Orig. printed grey wrappers w. small nicks to extremities. Internally fine. Pp. 386-392 (the rest of the volume: pp. 309-85, 393-462, [6 pp. advertisements]).‎


‎First publication of Karl R. Popper's discussion with G. S. Kirk, who, in an article named 'Popper on Science and the Presocratics', criticized Popper for having ""a fundamentally mistaken attitude to scientific methodology"". But in the discussion Popper does not involve himself in a direct exchange with Kirk, but instead develops some points about the understanding of Heraclitus that go against the interpretation of Kirk. Thus Popper criticizes his critic by using his arguments against himself.Besides philosophical elaborations as the present one, Popper is celebrated as one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century. Especially within the philosophy of science and scientific method - where he has presented his Critical Rationalism and his theory of falsification - and within political philosophy - where he has presented his strong critique of historicism and the idea of the open society and its enemies - Popper has left a major mark on modern thinking. In the present issue of 'Mind' there are also contributions by J. F. M. Hunter, J. O. Wisdom, K. Walton, etc.‎

‎First publication of Karl R. Popper's (1902-94) small Platonic dialogue, in which the author lets Socrates and Theaetetus, the old philosopher and the mathematical prodigy, discuss the self-reference that can occur both in ordinary conversation and in the most complex of philosophical discussions.Besides philosophical elaborations as the present one, Popper is celebrated as one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century. Especially within the philosophy of science and scientific method - where he has presented his Critical Rationalism and his theory of falsification - and within political theory - where he has presented his strong critique of historicism and the idea of the open society and its enemies - Popper has left a major mark on modern thinking.

(1962)

‎On Carnap's version of Laplace's Rule of Succession. (In: Mind. A Qarterly Review of Psychology and Philosophy. Vol. LXXI. No. 250, Januar, 1962.)‎

‎Edinburgh & N. Y., T. Nelson & Sons, 1962. 8vo. Orig. printed grey wrappers w. small nicks to extremities. Internally fine. Pp. 69-73 (the rest of the volume: pp. 1-68, 70-144, [4 pp. advertisements])‎


‎First publication of Karl R. Popper's (1902-94) mind-puzzle, set forth to prove that there are problems in Rudolf Carnap's (1891-1970) idea of rule of succession - for example ""because Carnap operates with the idea of individual bottoms [read: entities of the world] each of which has a NAME in his language. But this is very dangerous assumption (...)"" for it may tempt us to use these names as if they were predicates, or as if they were indication position, or order"". Besides philosophical elaborations as the present one, Popper is celebrated as one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century. Especially within the philosophy of science and scientific method - where he has presented his Critical Rationalism and his theory of falsification - and within political philosophy - where he has presented his strong critique of historicism and the idea of the open society and its enemies - Popper has left a major mark on modern thinking. In the present issue of 'Mind' there are also contributions by W. W. Rozeboom, P. Zinkernagel, P. E. Davis, etc.‎
