Subject: Readings on the Philosophy and History of Scientific Rationality


Apologies for any interuption, but I am looking for texts by Lyotard or
a Lyotardian perspective on the philosophy and history of scientific
rationality.  I already have some texts from Lyotard on my preliminary
bibliography, but I would appreciate some suggestions from someone
familiar with Lyotard's body of work more generally.  Of course I could
kick myself for having missed asking Lyotard himself, since he has since
departed Emory and his visiting professorship here.
I am preparing for a one month course at a charter school and would
appreciate suggested background readings for myself or readings at an
advanced high school/undergraduate level for the class.  I appreciate
any help you could give.

Many thanks,
Bayard Bell
