Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Groundwork of Science a Study of Epistemology We have again and again been impressed by the ready disposition of men whose views and opinions are most opposed, to agree in accepting ascertain, things which are by no means evident, and in adopting conclusions as proved, which arc by no means the only consequences that follow from conceded premisses. Our great object, therefore, in this little volume, is to represent nothing as certain which does not appear to us to be really evident, and yet not to shrink from upholding as true whatever, in our judgment, possesses the highest conceivable evidence. It has been our constant care to be impartial and, above all, to allow no consideration not purely scientific - no anticipations as to possible consequences - to influence us in the conclusions which our judgment has led us to form. Our appeal throughout has been to the dry light of reason, and to that alone. Not so to act; to allow any kind of prejudice, any non-scientific consideration, to influence us in such a task as an endeavour to investigate the groundwork of science, would be both treason to science and a betrayal of the cause of philosophy. But it is possible that to some persons the title of this book may prove a rock of offence, namely, persons disposed to doubt whether its object can be by any possibility attainable.
