Well, a theory is also a hypothesis, while not all hypotheses are a theory.

According to Popper a theory is a hypothesis, which withstood attempts 
to disprove it.

His own book is not science, but philosophy.

The difference is, that science is about nature and philosophy is about 
methods, thoughts and ideas.

Ideas cannot be treated in a scientific way, because you may believe 
things, that are not justified at all.

Physics in contrast is a science and is about nature and the behaviour 
of natural systems. The knowledge acquired in this field is utilised by 
engineers, who build all those nice devices, like cell phones and or 
mp3-players.

So science is about nature and about understanding, how nature actually 
functions. That is necessary to allow to build devices of some usefulness.

But these things are not science themselves, but their creation falls 
into fields like electronics, design and engineering.

Methods in science are also man-made, hence cannot be treated with 
methods meant for scientific discovery.

So the scientific method is neither a theory nor a hypothesis. It stems 
from a philosophical realm and is based on logic and thought.
