Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

PoPPer's Philosophy of Science is known as Critical Rationalism, while its major objective is to criticize the scientific philosophy of Logical Empiricism and to give a rational answer to the whole modern natural science. Popper holds the view that the Philosophy of Science, the Logic of Scientific Discovery, Scientific Discovery and Epistemology are all the same and that Epistemology or the Logic of Scientific Discovery should be equal to scientific methodology. His scientific methodology is just the methodology of falsificationism or what is called conjecture and refutation.
