Summary/Abstract |
Written by mathematician Hermann Weyl, this is a book on philosophy where "conflicts of conscience," arose where the objective nature of science which does not mesh easily with the incredulous, uncertain nature of philosophy. Hermann Weyl examines how advances in philosophy were led by scientific discoveries. Draws on work by Descartes, Galileo, Hume, Kant, Leibnitz and Newton. Provides readers with a guide to understanding science through the lens of philosophy.
