==Background== The 1976 book ''Proofs and Refutations'' is based on the first three chapters of his 1961 four-chapter doctoral thesis ''Essays in the Logic of Mathematical Discovery''. But its first chapter is Lakatos's own revision of its chapter 1 that was first published as ''Proofs and Refutations'' in four parts in 1963β4 in the ''[[British Journal for the Philosophy of Science]]''.
