Paperback, [EAN: 9781330313220], Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Forgotten Books, Excerpt from Comte, Mill, and Spencer: An Outline of PhilosophyNo apology seems needed for the publication at the present time of an Outline of Philosophy. There is no lack of Introductions to Psychology and Ethics, but, so far as I know, there is not in English any book which seeks to give in moderate compass a statement of Phil osophy as a whole. I am well aware that there is danger in generalities, but there seems to be just now an even greater danger that Philosophy, in the large sense in which it was understood by Plato and Aristotle, should be lost in artificial divisions and in a mass of empirical detail. There is no doubt a vast body of material biological, psychological, and historical - which will have to be reduced to system some day; but in the meantime there is a certain justification in a work like this, which tries to fix the main outlines of a complete system of philosophy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
