Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays on the Pursuit of Truth: On the Progress of Knowledge, and the Fundamental Principle of All Evidence and Expectation Few words will be necessary in introducing the present volume to the public. Some of those who did the author the honour of testifying a favourable estimate of a former Essay of his on the Formation of Opinions, expressed at the same time a regret that he had passed too lightly over one very important part of the subject; namely, the conduct of men in the application of their means and faculties to the investigation of truth. While he had explained more or less to their satisfaction in what manner the mind is affected by the circumstances in which it is placed, and the inevitable determination of its views by the evidence presented to it, they thought that he had indicated in too cursory a way the duties of mankind in the collection and examination of that evidence, the effect of which, when once brought before the understanding, is so completely uncontrollable by the will.
