While the inductive element does not exclude an emphasis on deductive demonstration as well, Hegel's phenomenological description of knowledge demonstrates why knowing becomes scientific only to the extent that it recognizes its dependence on experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimpson's argument closely parallels Hegel's own in the Phenomenology of Spirit, highlighting those sections, like Hegel's analysis of mastery and slavery, that contribute to the argument that knowing is both vulnerable and responsive to the way in which experience resists our attempts to make sense of things. Simpson's argument connects his account of Hegelian phenomenology with traditional accounts of induction, and with a number of other commentators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Simpson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0791432769\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780791432761\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.93h x 5.91w x 0.41d","brand":"Peter Simpson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453386993919,"sku":"9780791432761","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_68126941-de51-49f1-94bf-1a9943b1e6b5.jpg?v=1777299979","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hegels-transcendental-induction-peter-simpson-9780791432761","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
