Abstract
Feyerabend says: “…Science is based on (that is, is either finally supported, or finally condemned, by) experience. What reason do we have to accept it? What reason do we have to prefer experience to, say, a careful analysis of dreams, or to a careful examination of relevant passages in the bible? No answer is forthcoming.”
