Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. A scientific opinion is one which there is some reason to believe is true, an unscientific opinion is one which is held for some reason other than its probable truth. Bertrand Russell One of Russell s most important books, this early classic on science illuminates his thinking on the promise and threat of scientific progress. Russell considers three questions fundamental to an understanding of science: the nature and scope of scientific knowledge, the increased power over nature that science affords, and the changes in the lives of human beings that result from new forms of science. With customary wit and clarity, Russell offers brilliant discussions of many major scientific figures, including Aristotle, Galileo, Newton and Darwin.

Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. First Edition. Stated first edition at copyright page. Copyright 1931, Bertrand Russell. Design by Robert S. Josephy. Red full cloth boards, silver cover and spine titles with black geometric ribbon wrapping around, light shelf wear. Pages near fine, clean; no writing. Bind fine, square; hinges intact. Rare near fine first edition of this near prophetic volume of "higher" concepts for the future. "A scientific opinion is one which there is some reason to believe is true. An unscientific opinion is one which is held for some reason other than its probable truth." - Bertrand Russell Scientific knowledge, technique, and society are the topics treated by the distinguished philosopher. Considered one of Bertrand Russell's most important books, this early classic illuminates the promise and threat of scientific progress. Russell considers three questions fundamental: the nature and scope of scientific knowledge, the increased power in nature that science affords, and the changes in the lives of human beings that result from advancement. With customary wit and clarity, Russell offers brilliant discussions of many major historical figures. According to Russell, science is knowledge and seeks general laws connecting a number of particular facts. Insightful and accessible, this impressive work is Russell at his very best. Bertrand Russell (1872 1970) was a formidable thinker in the modern era. A philosopher, mathematician, educational innovator, champion of intellectual, social and sexual freedom, and a campaigner for peace and human rights, he was also a prolific writer of popular and highly influential books, essays and lectures on an extensive range of subjects. He is also considered by many to be a selected leader of future thought and the not always so benificent utilization of technology. Printed in the United States of America for the publisher by the Vail-Ballou Press. Detailed five-page index. 277 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall. Book.
