Beschreibung:
Drawing on archive materials, essays discuss not only Neurath's better-known works from lesser-known perspectives, but also his lesser-known works from the better-known perspective of their place in his overall philosophical oeuvre. Reflecting the full range of Neurath's work, this volume has a broad appeal. Besides scholars and researchers interested in Neurath, Carnap, the Vienna Circle, work on logical empiricism and the history and philosophy of science, this book will also appeal to graduate students in philosophy, sociology, history and education. Readers will find Neurath's thoughts described and evaluated in an accessible manner, making it a good read for those beyond the academic world such as social leaders and activists.
