The Common Sense Of The Exact Sciences (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162978451)

""The Common Sense of the Exact Sciences"" is a classic work of scientific philosophy written by William Kingdon Clifford. Originally published in 1885, the book explores the nature of scientific knowledge and the relationship between science and common sense. Clifford argues that the methods of science are based on common sense reasoning, but that they also require a rigorous and systematic approach in order to produce reliable knowledge. He discusses the role of mathematics in science, the importance of experimental evidence, and the limits of scientific knowledge. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scientists and non-scientists alike. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the philosophy of science and the nature of scientific knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
