Paul Feyerabend: A mad boy

Born in Austria in January  13, 1924 Paul Feyerabend was an philosopher of science. Next, I going to speak about this mad men:


His better works as a professor in the university of California, Berkeley. His more important book are "Against Method (published in 1975), Science in a Free Society (published in 1978) and Farewell to Reason (a collection of papers published in 1987)"(Wikipedia). He wrote against the science method and he postulated the Epistemological anarchism. He died  in February 11, 1994 in Switzerland.

Feyeraben, across his works, fight against the rules of the science method. He said that this rules limited the activities of scientist. So, he propose a science method that integrate all points of view, this method is call Epistemological  anarchism, in easier words, the idea is that while exits more forms to explain the reality more rich is the human knowledge.

I consider Paul a very interesting Philosopher because hi argument against the rules and rigid method. I think that the rules are a guideline not a law, and the traditional epistemology are very rigid with the science method, in his theory the method is considered as law. So, Feyeraben tell us the possibility of new science, a more humanitarian and creative science.

Thank for your time. Bye.
