This dictionary contains almost a thousand keywords coined or newly interpreted by the philosophers Karl Popper and Hans Albert. It supplies explanations, relevant references to the original text and many internal references to related concepts. It is useful for obtaining quick information and for browsing in a network of small, easily readable essays. More than any other philosophy, critical rationalism covers a wide range of thought, for example science, the logic of scientific discovery, the social philosophy of the »Open Society«, logic, the theory of probability, physics, biology and a criticism of ordinary thinking.
