A brilliant exposition of Popper's theory of knowledge, this Routledge Classics edition includes a new Introduction by Jeremy Shearmur, which provides some helpful context to Objective Knowledge and Popper's philosophy in general.

Karl Popper (1902-1994) was one of the most provocative philosophers of the twentieth century. His relationship with the philosophers and scientists of the Vienna Circle led to his first book, The Logic of Scientific Discovery, which appeared in German in 1934 and presented his theory of the growth of scientific knowledge. On its publication in English in 1959, the book was described by the New Scientist as 'one of the most important documents of the twentieth century.' Popper emigrated to New Zealand in 1939 on the eve of World War Two. Reflecting on the tyranny sweeping through Europe, he wrote The Open Society and Its Enemies. Published in 1945, it remains his most compelling and widely read book. In 1946 Popper moved to the London School of Economics, where he taught until his retirement in 1969. This period saw the publication of The Poverty of Historicism, described by the Sunday Times as 'probably the only book which will outlive this century' and Conjectures and Refutations, a collection of many of Popper's classic essays. Karl Popper was knighted in 1965 and appointed Companion of Honour in 1982. He continued to write until his death in 1994.
