About this book

William Whewell, Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, gathers critical chapters on the thinkers who shaped ideas of knowledge and scientific method. New chapters treat Plato and Aristotle, Francis Bacon and the Arabian philosophers, Mill, Mansel and Sir William Hamilton, and Kant, Fichte, Schelling and Hegel. Much of the older material came from the twelfth book of his Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences, and this volume completes that work's third edition. He also adds views of his own bearing on the philosophy of religion. London, 1860.
