All Life Is Problem Solving

All Life is Problem Solving provides a provocative selection of Sir Karl Popper's writings on his main preoccupations during the last twenty-five years of his life.The book consists of fifteen pieces -- lectures, seminar contributions, radio broadcasts and magazine articles -- spanning the years 1958 to 1993, and never published in English before. The collection elucidates Popper's interest in the origins of Germanic language and culture, illuminates his process of working out key formulations in his theory of science and indicates his view of the state of the world at the end of the Cold War and the collapse of communism.This volume of Popper's work presents important statements of not only his philosophical beliefs, but his views of the modern world.
