Abstract
This paper focuses on one of the major contributions Heinz von Foerste r has made to epistemology and the philosophy of science. It traces ea rlier disagreements with the traditional theory of knowledge and sketc hes the history to which von Foerster's interpretation of the principl e of indifferentiated coding supplied a decisive final chapter.
