Publication of Against Method: Outline of an Anarchistic Theory of Knowledge
Feyerabend published his book Against Method. Feyerabend had initially planned to write a piece with Imre Lakatos in which Lakatos would defend a rationalist view of science and Feyerabend would attack it. Unfortunately Lakatos passed therefore only Feyerabend's half was completed. What was originally going to be a dialogue volume became a famous criticism of philosophical views. Feyerabend, Paul K.
