Quora Answer : What are the best books on the life and work of Karl Popper?

Apr 30, 2011

I recommend his autobiography Unended Quest. That gave me a couple of insights that helped me frame his thinking and come to a better understanding.

Also, I love the extracts about the pre-Socratics in the David Miller edited selections book. I think the original is called The World of Parmenides or something, though I haven't read that.
