		Frank, Hahn and von Mises became part of the somewhat larger group active during the 1920s in the Vienna Circle of Logical Positivists.
		Frank worked on a wide range of topics in mathematics, and when one takes into account his publications on physics and philosophy it was a truly remarkable breadth.

		Frank’s ironic description notwithstanding, it was not just an accident that the Vienna Circle was founded at Prague.
		Being the youngest member of the German University of the Charles University in Prague, Frank experienced the end of the Habsburg Monarchy and the first democratic republic of Czechoslovakia, the beginning of which was hampered by the idea of creating a nation out of a mixed and multilingual population.
		Frank took part in heated debates in Prague’s various intellectual and cultural circles and took a consistent stand on the role of science in politics and society, in the debates about relativity and even more when the influence of Nazi-ideology reached the city.

		The Vienna Circle was essentially a modernist movement, at the center of which was the so-called "Schlick Circle", a discussion group organized in 1924 by Moritz Schlick.
		It was suggested by Neurath and was supposed to have a pleasant connotation similar to the "Vienna Woods" or the "Viennese Waltz".
		At the same time the term was to indicate the origin of this philosophical movement and its collective orientation (Frank 1949).

		But Frank was worried: with quack prescriptions for unity lurking on one side, and popular science and Hollywood movies calling from the other, good scientists understandably wondered where to turn.
		In the world of the late twentieth century, "cross connections" were growing, not shrinking: "The domains of facts which can be derived from one and the same set of principles have not become smaller but larger." As the crossconnected scientists pulled fields together, domains of the special sciences "merged." Chemistry and physics provided an example.
		As Frank represented the problem, one difficulty was that of language.

		Already known for his papers on mathematical physics, and for his collaboration with the philosophers and scientists in the Vienna Circle, Frank developed his early essays of 1907--08 on causal law and human experience into this expository and critical treatise of 1931.
		How useful the logical empiricist requirement to formulate a `scientific philosophy' was, is demonstrated by Frank's clarifications of the strengths as well as limitations of the several concepts linked to causal explanation, and indeed by his analysis of misuse, what he called metaphysical, obscure misinterpretations.
		Among the historically significant topics in this classical treatise on science and its humanist import are Laplace's determinist hypothesis, loss of causal simplicity in field concept, causality and miracles, lawfulness in biology, cause and chance, conservation laws and causal laws, irreversibility of natural processes, and `true' world.

	The Absolute Beneath the Relative
		It could not have therefore come as a surprise to Philipp Frank that, as he lectured on relativity at the meeting of German physicists in Prague in 1929, a participant publicly warned him about the absolutist character of Einstein's ideas.[3] Frank refused to take heed for the rest of his life.
		The main proof of this is Frank's Relativity—A Richer Truth, a book distinctly insensitive to the perspective in which Einstein viewed relativity in particular and the philosophy of physics in general.
		On this basis the relativity of values could only be a foregone conclusion.[9] It is, of course, well known that for all his dismissal of religion and of belief in a personal God, Einstein insisted on the unquestionable superiority of the Judeo-christian perspective in which unconditional value is attributed to each and every human being.
