Bag om The Prevailing Types of Philosophy

The Prevailing Types of Philosophy: Can They Logically Reach Reality? is a philosophical treatise written by James McCosh. In this book, the author examines the different types of philosophy that have prevailed throughout history, including Idealism, Realism, and Scepticism. He argues that each of these types of philosophy has its own strengths and weaknesses, but ultimately, they all fall short in their ability to logically reach reality.McCosh contends that the prevailing types of philosophy are limited in their ability to understand the world because they rely too heavily on abstract concepts and theoretical constructs. He argues that true understanding of reality can only be achieved through empirical observation and scientific inquiry.Throughout the book, McCosh provides a detailed analysis of each type of philosophy, examining its core tenets, its historical development, and its limitations. He also offers his own perspective on how philosophy should be approached, advocating for a more pragmatic and scientifically grounded approach.Overall, The Prevailing Types of Philosophy: Can They Logically Reach Reality? is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the limitations of traditional philosophical approaches. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy and the ongoing debate over the nature of reality.1891. McCosh, Scottish-American philosopher and educator, he served as President of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University). In this volume he attempts to reconcile Darwin's theories with God's work and teachings. Contents: What is Reality?; The Experiential and Sensational Schools; The A-Priori or Kantian School; The Scottish School; and The Results Reached.
