About this title

Synopsis

The Prevailing Types of Philosophy: Can They Logically Reach Reality? is a philosophical treatise by James McCosh that explores the different types of philosophical schools of thought and their ability to logically reach reality. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing an overview of the different types of philosophy, including Idealism, Realism, Positivism, and Materialism. McCosh examines the strengths and weaknesses of each school of thought and discusses their ability to reach the truth.In the second part of the book, McCosh delves deeper into the question of whether any of these types of philosophy can logically reach reality. He argues that while each school of thought has its merits, none of them can provide a complete and comprehensive understanding of reality. Instead, he proposes a more comprehensive approach that takes into account the strengths of each philosophy and combines them into a more holistic view of reality.Throughout the book, McCosh uses logical reasoning and critical analysis to explore the different types of philosophy and their limitations. He also draws on his own experiences as a philosopher and educator to provide practical insights into the study of philosophy. The Prevailing Types of Philosophy: Can They Logically Reach Reality? is a thought-provoking and insightful work that will appeal to anyone interested in philosophy, logic, and the nature of reality.1891. McCosh, Scottish-American philosopher and educator, he served as President of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University). In this volume he attempts to reconcile Darwin's theories with God's work and teachings.
