Aggiungi al carrelloFIRST EDITION, pp. vii, 38, crown 8vo original stapled white wrappers with a portrait of Compton to front, text to same printed in brown, staples slightly rusted, a couple of very faint spots and some light dustsoiling to covers, very good. Inscribed by the author on the half-title: 'To Alistair Milne, with kind regards from Karl Popper, January 1971'. The recipient was a philosopher, based then at Queen's University, Belfast, and working in the areas of English Idealism and political philosophy. An important lecture, subsequently collected in 'Objective Knowledge' (1978), in which Popper, with reference to a North American tradition, and particularly the work of Charles Sanders Peirce and Compton himself - who provides 'Compton's problem', of how external events and engagements affect one's actions, which the author assesses in relation to the classical Cartesian 'problem' of the co-working of body and mind and its impact on human behaviour and will - proposes the need to formulate a 'new theory of evolution, and a new model of the organism'.
