 Moritz Schlick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schlick's enduring contribution to the world of philosophy is as the fount of logical positivism.
Schlick had worked on his Allgemeine Erkenntnislehre (General Theory of Knowledge) between 1918 and 1925, and, though later developments in his philosophy were to make various of his epistemological contentions untenable, the General Theory is perhaps his greatest work in its acute reasoning against synthetic a priori knowledge.
Schlick himself contacted Wittgenstein in 1924 and extolled the virtues of Wittgenstein's book vis-a-vis his immediate circle.

 Moritz Schlick
What was originally meant, he said, by protocol statements, were statements that express the facts with absolute simplicity in which every science consists and which precede all knowledge and every judgement regarding the world.
In "Positivism and Realism," Moritz Schlick provided an answer to the problem with what he called "The Verification theory of meaning." He summarized it in these seven steps.
However, as logical positivists became more mature, it became more and more obvious that they were not really less metaphysical than Aristotle's first principles, at least not in the sense they used the term metaphysics.

 Schlick Moritz from FOLDOC
As the personable leader of the Vienna Circle, Schlick was instrumental in the formation of the logical positivist movement, whose work is preserved in the Gesammelte Aus”tze (Collected Essays) (1938).
Unlike many of his fellow positivists, Schlick was willing to include ethics (understood as a strictly empirical study of human desires and their consequences for human action) within the province of meaningful (verifiable) scientific discourse, as in Fragen der Ethik (Problems of Ethics) (1930).
