Abstract
The book The Popperian Legacy in Economics (editor Neil de Marchi, Cambridge University Press, 1988) is recommended as a well-composed overview of different approaches to economic methodology, the struggle of economists with the attractions and frustrations of Popper's methodology of falsification, and attempts to strike out in new directions. The overall result is confusion, but a confusion which is worth taking note of and which offers both a challenge and some hints for a search for progress. Part two of the article attempts to take up that challenge.
