An Inquiry Concerning The Principles Of Natural Knowledge (1919) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781164061564)

""An Inquiry Concerning The Principles Of Natural Knowledge"" is a philosophical book written by Alfred North Whitehead and originally published in 1919. The book explores the principles of natural knowledge and how they relate to the scientific method, as well as the role of perception and experience in shaping our understanding of the world. Whitehead argues that knowledge is not simply a matter of passive observation, but is actively constructed through a process of inquiry and experimentation. He also discusses the nature of causation, arguing that it is not a fixed and immutable principle, but rather a dynamic and evolving concept that is shaped by our experiences and interactions with the world. Overall, ""An Inquiry Concerning The Principles Of Natural Knowledge"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the fundamental principles that underpin our understanding of the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
