TL;DRAbstract

Among economists, Otto Neurath is most well known for his views about moneyless economies; among historians, for his work on full socialisation during the short-lived Bavarian revolution of 1919; among educators, for his work on social museums. Among philosophers, he is surely most widely known for his metaphor of sailors rebuilding their ships at sea, which he used to attack foundational accounts of knowledge. This book is about Neurath's philosophy and it is about his political life. And it is about the connection between the two, which left neither of them unchanged.
