Against Method by Paul Feyerabend Week 1

For this four week event we will continue our critical analysis of the history and philosophy of science by diving into Against Method by Paul Feyerabend. Famously critical of Kuhn's work The Structure of Scientific Revolutions for being to conservative in its critique of science, Feyerabend aims to examine the assumptions at the base of scientific practice in order to knock science off of it pedestal. Join us as we challenge our deeply held assumptions in order to form a deeper understanding of science in our postmodern world. I will be reading from this version and a free copy can be found here. For the first week we will read chapters 1-7 (p. 1-73). Participants should read the entire reading before attending this in person meeting. For questions please send me a message or post to meetup.

Best,

Brian
