Abstrakt

Ernst Mach was not only a physicist with outstanding questions, or a philosopher of science, he was also an excellent educator, both in his theory as well as his own lectures. Unfortunately, this aspect of his epistemology seems rather unknown nowadays[1], though it is therefore all the more worth to revive. For an introduction into the topic, we shall look at a prominent contemporary of Mach, William James, for his opinion on Machian education.

 

[1] The most notable exceptions have been Blüh (1970), Hohenester (1988), Matthews (1988, 1990, 1994) and Hoffmann & Manthei (1991).
