Description
The Common Sense of the Exact Sciences is a book written by William Kingdon Clifford, a British mathematician and philosopher. The book was first published in 1885 and is considered a classic work in the field of philosophy of science. The book is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the nature of mathematics and the role it plays in science. Clifford argues that mathematics is not just a tool for measuring and calculating, but it is also a way of understanding the world around us. He also discusses the relationship between mathematics and logic.The second part of the book focuses on the nature of physics and the scientific method. Clifford argues that physics is not just a collection of facts and theories, but it is also a way of thinking about the world. He discusses the importance of observation, experimentation, and hypothesis testing in the scientific method.The third part of the book deals with the nature of reality and the limitations of human knowledge. Clifford argues that there are limits to what we can know about the world, and that we must be humble in the face of these limitations. He also discusses the relationship between science and religion.Overall, The Common Sense of the Exact Sciences is a thought-provoking and insightful book that explores the nature of mathematics, physics, and human knowledge. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the philosophy of science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
