David William Miller (19 August 1942 in Watford – 20 November 2024[1]) was an English philosopher and prominent exponent of critical rationalism.
In 1964 he began to study Logic and Scientific Method at the London School of Economics.
A substantial literature developed in the two decades following, including papers by Miller, to assess the remediability of Popper's approach.
Miller's Critical Rationalism: A Restatement and Defence[2] is an attempt to expound, defend, and extend an approach to scientific knowledge identified with Popper.
A central, "not quite original", thesis is that rationality does not depend on good reasons.
