==More on world{{nbsp}}3== Popper's world{{nbsp}}3 contains the products of thought. This includes abstract [[object (philosophy)|object]]s such as [[scientific theories]], [[narrative|stories]], [[mythology|myth]]s and works of art.{{sfn|Heller|2011|p=118β120}} Popper says that his world{{nbsp}}3 has much in common with Plato's theory of Forms or Ideas.{{sfn|Popper|1972|loc=Chap. 3}} But, world{{nbsp}}3 is not to be conceived as a [[Platonic realm]], because unlike the [[Theory of forms|Platonic world of forms]], which is non changing and exists independently of human beings, Popper's world{{nbsp}}3 is created by human beings and is not fixed.<ref name="Niiniluoto2006p61"/> It corresponds to the current state of our knowledge and culture.<ref name="Eccles1970p165"/>
