High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ernest André Gellner (9 December 1925 5 November 1995) was a philosopher, a sociologist and a social anthropologist, cited as one of the world's "most vigorous intellectuals" and a "one-man crusade for critical rationalism," whose first book, Words and Things (1959) famously, and uniquely for a philosopher, prompted a leader in The Times and a month-long correspondence on its letters page. As the Professor of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method at the London School of Economics (LSE) for 22 years, the William Wyse Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Cambridge for eight, and finally as head of the new Centre for the Study of Nationalism in Prague, Gellner fought all his life in his writing, his teaching, and through his political activism against what he saw as closed systems of thought, particularly communism, psychoanalysis, and relativism.
