Radical Knowledge [Book Review]

Review of Metaphysics 36 (1):180-182 (1982)

Abstract

This book is a neo-Feyerabendian excursion into epistemology and metaphysics. As such it exhibits all of the strengths and weaknesses of that genre. It presupposes some familiarity on the part of the reader with the Kuhn to Feyerabend literature, and it takes for granted the acceptance of such things as paradigm switches and the theory-ladenness of observation.
