This volume contains Popper's new and very wide-ranging elaboration on his views on induction, demarcation and corroboration as well as an explanation of his propensity theory of probability. The book also contains detailed observations and responses to the great deal of criticism and objections which Popper's views aroused in the years following the first publication of the Logic of Scientific Discovery.
