On the Principles and Ends of Philosophy: Comprehending an Examination of the Systems Which Now Prevail, and a Detail of the Erroneous Principles on ... Evils to Which They Tend (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book delves into the fundamental principles of physical science, examining the essential attributes and properties of matter in its various forms. The author challenges current scientific dogma, arguing that many commonly accepted notions, particularly in physiology, are based on false assumptions and erroneous interpretations of experimental data. The book presents a unique perspective on the relationship between matter and energy, proposing that gases possess an inherent expansive power that distinguishes them from elastic or exible substances. This expansibility is seen as a key factor in understanding various physical phenomena, including the movement of uids and the behavior of light. The author emphasizes the need for a clear distinction between capacity and power, arguing that true scientific understanding requires the recognition of the limitations of matter's ability to act and the importance of external forces in driving change. The book's insights challenge conventional wisdom and offer a fresh perspective on the fundamental nature of the physical world.
