The Contingency Of The Laws Of Nature (1920) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781164265597)

The Contingency of the Laws of Nature is a philosophical book written by Emile Boutroux in 1920. In this book, Boutroux explores the concept of contingency in relation to the laws of nature. He argues that the laws of nature are not absolute and necessary, but rather contingent and dependent on various factors. Boutroux suggests that the laws of nature are not predetermined, but rather emerge from the interactions between various factors such as matter, energy, and consciousness. He also discusses the role of human agency in shaping the laws of nature and the limitations of scientific knowledge in understanding the contingency of the laws of nature. The Contingency of the Laws of Nature is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges traditional views of the laws of nature and provides a new perspective on the relationship between science and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
