Books by Paul Feyerabend

Finished only weeks before his death in 1994, this autobiography traces the trajectory that led Feyerabend him from an isolated, lower-middle-class childhood in Vienna to the height of international academic success as one of this century's most influential intellectuals.

"Conquest of Abundance" was prepared from drafts of the manuscript left at the author's death, working notes, lectures and articles Feyerabend wrote while the larger work was in progress. It offers up exploration and insights with the charm, and sense of mischief that are his hallmarks.
