"Required reading for school (again). Author is a philosopher of science who has an unfortunate tendency to assume that the average reader has the same knowledge base of philosophy as he has. The ideas themselves are fairly interesting, but the presentation nearly obscures them at times. A very frustrating read and a book that I would not recommend unless you have severe insomnia."
"I really like the philosophy of Karl Popper, and The Logic of Scientific Discovery has made a big impact on my life as a young scientist in training. However, asking famous philosophers to wax-reminiscent about their life experiences may be somewhat ill-advised. He comes of as somewhat of a self-effacing, yet pompous know-it-all. Kind of a disappointing read."
