The \u003cem\u003ePostscript\u003c\/em\u003e is the culmination of Popper’s work in the philosophy of physics and a new famous attack on subjectivist approaches to philosophy of science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRealism and the Aim of Science\u003c\/em\u003e is the first volume of the \u003cem\u003ePostcript\u003c\/em\u003e. Popper here formulates and explains his non-justificationist theory of knowledge: science aims at true explanatory theories, yet it can never prove, or justify, any theory to be true, not even if is a true theory. Science must continue to question and criticise all its theories, even those that happen to be true. \u003cem\u003eRealism and the Aim of Science\u003c\/em\u003e presents Popper’s mature statement on scientific knowledge and offers important insights into his thinking on problems of method within science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45590245507310,"sku":"9780415084000","price":66.29,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780415084000_4cb91232-5b19-4d66-9410-7180946299a6.jpg?v=1721232118","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/realism-and-the-aim-of-science","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
