ABOUT HANS REICHENBACH: Hans Reichenbach (1891-1953) was a prominent philosopher of science and a leading figure in the development of logical empiricism. Born in Hamburg, Germany, he studied physics, mathematics, and philosophy under notable scholars such as Albert Einstein, David Hilbert, and Max Planck. He earned his PhD in 1916 with a dissertation on the concept of probability. In 1928, Reichenbach founded the Berlin Circle, a group of philosophers and scientists dedicated to the logical analysis of science. His work encompassed the philosophy of physics, logic, induction, and the foundations of probability. He is particularly noted for his contributions to the interpretation of probability theory and his analysis of the philosophical implications of the theory of relativity. With the rise of the Nazi regime in 1933, Reichenbach emigrated to Turkey, where he chaired the philosophy department at Istanbul University. In 1938, he moved to the United States and joined the University of California, Los Angeles, significantly influencing the philosophy department there. Among his notable works are "The Philosophy of Space and Time" (1928), "Philosophic Foundations of Quantum Mechanics" (1944), and "Experience and Prediction" (1949). "Experience and Prediction" was written expressly to introduce logical positivism to English speakers. Reichenbach, with Rudolph Carnap, founded logical positivism, a form of epistemofogy that privileged scientific over metaphysical truths.

Shop-Beschreibung

Underground Books, ABAA is an online rare and antiquarian bookshop, founded in 2011 as a brick and mortar general bookstore of the same name in downtown Carrollton, Georgia, which is now operated by out former store manager as The Underground Bookshop. Co-owners Josh Niesse and Megan Bell met in 2011, just 10 days or so after Josh opened the doors of Underground Books, literally underground, several steps below street level in a 100-year-old basement in our historic downtown. Megan, an English student at the University of West Georgia, walked in, fell down the rabbit hole, and never left! Reader, we married in May of 2014, under the book arch that now resides at the bookshop. We are both proud alumni of the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar (CABS), and Megan additionally of Rare Book School at the University of Virginia and of the ABAA Women’s Initiative Mentorship Program. Like many booksellers with open brick-and-mortar stores, we are passionate generalists, but our specialties are in decorative publisher's cloth bindings; fairy tales, folklore, and mythology; popular science and natural history; the occult; and fine press books.
