Foreword

Abstract

From passages quoted in Giandomenica Becchio's excellent introduction, it will be clear that I found Karl Menger an ideal subject when I was a series editor (of the Vienna Circle Collection) and he a contributor. He produced splendid copy, did his own translations, found his own references and was altogether easy to deal with – when he had his own way, of course, but that was usually the best course in any case. Alas he died before he and we could assemble a full set of reminiscences. The volume we brought out is still in demand and was greeted with enthusiasm by those interested in the intellectual history of its period. All the more it is a joy to learn that further papers of this nature have now been made available for publication.
