Excerpt from The Helpful Science
Then blossomed that great recurrence, the Renascence, once more bringing Plato into fashion, with a love for physical science akin to that which had existed in the mind of Aristotle. Therewith there naturally arose a feeling of aversio'n from what had charmed men before, with a neglect of one depart ment of nature, just as another department had been previously neglected by mediaeval students.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating and in-depth exploration of the foundations of our knowledge and the principles underlying all our beliefs and actions.

Through a journey of introspection and logical analysis, the book delves into the nature of certainty, the role of sensation and thought, and the essential differences between idealism and materialism.

Ultimately, this book offers a profound insight into the nature of knowledge and the limits of our understanding, providing a valuable resource for those seeking a solid intellectual foundation for their beliefs and actions.
