Description
A systematic critique of the notion that natural science is the sovereign domain of truth, Critique of Scientific Reason uses an extensive and detailed investigation of physics-and in particular of Einstein's theory of relativity-to argue that the positivistic notion of rationality is not only wrongheaded but false. Kurt Hubner contends that positivism ignores both the historical dimension of science and the basic structures common to scientific theory, myth, and so-called subjective symbolic systems. Moreover, Hubner argues, positivism has led in our time to a widespread disillusionment with science and technology.
