Scepsis Scientifica Or, the Vanity of Dogmatizing

Scepsis Scientifica Or, The Vanity Of Dogmatizing is a philosophical treatise written by Joseph Glanvill in the 17th century. The book is a critique of dogmatism in science and philosophy, arguing that blind adherence to established beliefs and theories is a hindrance to true knowledge and understanding. Glanvill argues that skepticism and doubt are necessary for scientific inquiry and that scientific progress requires an open-minded approach to new ideas and evidence. The book covers a range of topics, including the nature of knowledge, the limits of human understanding, and the role of reason and faith in scientific inquiry. It is considered an important work in the history of philosophy and science, and its ideas have influenced thinkers and scientists for centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
