Nice work

Nice work on the Galileo Galilei article. Thanks. Icemuon 20:00, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who cares about Feyerabend?

In response to the above query from the note on one of your Galileo revisions, the answer is surely: philosophers of science. Quite aside from scientific results, scientific methodology is an important issue in its own right, and, regardless of what one might think of his conclusions, Feyerabend was certainly a very major figure in this field. And his analysis of Galileo was a major part of his research. But I should add that the only reason why I added the material on Feyerabend (for it was I who did) was to provide a rejoinder to the material that was already there on Koestler—someone who, as far as I can make out, neither scientists nor philosophers care about. Those two paragraphs should, it seems to me, stand or fall together as one. My own view is that both should be allowed to stand, but that they should together be moved to the Scientific Method section. I'll do that. Hce1132 12:27, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
