Proofs and Refutations is essential reading for all those interested in the methodology, the philosophy and the history of mathematics. Much of the book takes the form of a discussion between a teacher and his students. They propose various solutions to some mathematical problems and investigate the strengths and weaknesses of these solutions. Their discussion (which mirrors certain real developments in the history of mathematics) raises some philosophical problems and some problems about the nature of mathematical discovery or creativity. Imre Lakatos is concerned throughout to combat the cla

The work that helped to determine Paul Feyerabend’s fame and notoriety, Against Method, stemmed from Imre Lakatos’s challenge: "In 1970 Imre cornered me at a party. ’Paul,’ he said, ’you have such strange ideas. Why don’t you write them down? I shall write a reply, we publish the whole thing and I promise you—we shall have a lot of fun.’ " Although Lakatos died before he could write his reply, For and Against Method reconstructs his original counter-arguments from lectures and correspondence previously unpublished in English, allowing us to enjoy the

1949 was a pivotal moment of economic dominance; the MBA was still exotic, arcane, and swaggeringly potent. The men of Harvard Business School 49 would be the class the dollars fell on. By 1974, nearly one 49er in five was a millionaire. Forty-five percent were chairmen, presidents, or chief operating officers. The men of HBS 49, however, hadnt just achieved success; theyd defined success.Their story is much more than a catalogue of vivid business tales; it is a map of American ambitions and assumptions, of national triumphs and epic-scale misjudgments that have only recently been finding thei

Before mild-mannered furniture salesman Al Tuschman left New Jersey for a week in Key West, he hadn’t an enemy in the world. But a series of puzzling assaults on his privacy, his sanity, and his life has turned his stay at the tasteful Paradise Hotel into Tropical Hell. Maybe it’s the humidity. Maybe the Sambuca. Or maybe it’s the nickname emblazoned on his license plate: Big Al.For Big Al Marracotta, Mafia capo, a Florida getaway means outrunning a career in crime and rancid calamari. For Katy Sansone it’s a bid for sunshine and self-respect--until a case of mistaken i
