An outstanding feature of this book is the broad range of the
contributors, drawn from Europe, the Middle East and North America,
testifying both to the range of Professor Agassi''s interests and the
geographical spread of his influence.

Most contributors use Agassi''s ideas as a springboard to engage in
debate on issues, or offer a contribution in an area that interests
him. In this volume contributors consider such questions as Agassi''s
philosophy of education, in practice as well as in theory; the impact
of psychologism in philosophy; the origins of critical rationalism in
the Bible; the debates in economics stimulated by the work of Popper
and Agassi, and many other topics.

Besides the special topics, the reader gains some sense of the
fruitfulness of critical rationalism in the hands of Agassi''s friends
and colleagues.
