Abstract
In The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, Vol. 28, No. 4 (Dec. 1977), pp. 351–369, there is a discussion by Professor P. Feyerabend of the original German edition of my book, “The Structure and Dynamics of Theories,” [52]. It was my original intention to write a brief reply to this review, in which reply I wanted to answer various questions raised by Feyerabend and to meet some of his objections. This turned out to be impracticable. Since the publication of [52] there have been so many developments and, what is more important, I discovered so many misrepresentations in my book that it would have been a hopeless undertaking to deal with all these aspects in a brief comment on Feyerabend’s discussion.
