Discussion: Science in a Free Society

Author: Paul Feyerabend

Description: Science in a Free Society is a critique of the authority of science and its role in society. Philosopher Paul Feyerabend argues that science, while valuable, should not be regarded as the only or ultimate path to knowledge. He advocates for epistemological pluralism, suggesting that other forms of understanding, including traditional knowledge and the arts, deserve equal respect. Feyerabend challenges the notion of scientific objectivity and warns against the potential for science to become dogmatic and oppressive if left unchecked.
