Beskrivelse af Naturalism and Agnosticism
""Naturalism and Agnosticism"" is a philosophical treatise written by James Ward, a prominent philosopher of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book explores two major schools of thought in philosophy: naturalism and agnosticism. Naturalism is the belief that everything in the universe can be explained by natural causes and laws, without the need for supernatural or divine intervention. Agnosticism, on the other hand, is the belief that the existence of God or any ultimate reality is unknown and unknowable. Ward examines the arguments for and against both naturalism and agnosticism, and considers their implications for ethics, morality, and human understanding of the world. He also critiques the ideas of other prominent philosophers, such as Herbert Spencer and Thomas Huxley, and offers his own perspective on the nature of reality and the human experience.Overall, ""Naturalism and Agnosticism"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of two major philosophical perspectives that continue to shape our understanding of the world today.1906. This book contains Volumes 1 and 2 of the original works. Found within are the Gifford Lectures delivered before the University of Aberdeen in the years 1896-1898. These lectures do not form a systematic treatise. They only attempt to discuss in a popular way certain assumptions of modern science which have led to a widespread, but more or less tacit, rejection of idealistic views of the world. Partial Contents: mechanical theory; relation of abstract dynamics to actual phenomena; molecular mechanics its indirectness; molecular mechanics, ideals or matter; theory of energy; mechanical evolution; biological evolution; theory of psychophysical parallelism; conscious automation theory; refutation of dualism; experience as life; unity of individual and universal experience; spiritualistic monism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
