Abstract

Joseph Agassi has published extensively on history, philosophy, sociology and the politics of science. Less known, he has over a long span of time published intriguing work on education. In them Agassi discusses pseudoscience, superstition, "intellectual rubbish", and other such common commitments. He endeavours to tease out the identifying philosophical features of such positions; and their social psychology, specifically why are they believable?
