Excerpt: ...has studied at all completely a single positive science, even without any philosophical purpose in view. It is because they have failed to recognise this essential fact that our psychologists have been led to take their reveries for science, in the belief that they understood the Positive Method because they have read the precepts of Bacon or the discourse of Descartes. 58. I do not know if, in the future, it will become possible to construct by i priori reasoning a genuine course on Method, wholly independent of the philosophical study of the sciences; but I am quite convinced that it cannot be done at present, for the great logical methods cannot yet be explained with sufficient precision apart from their applications. I venture to add, moreover, that, even if such an enterprise could be eventually carried out, which is conceivable, it would nevertheless only be through the study of regular applications of scientific methods that we could succeed in forming a good system of intellectual habits; which is, however, the essential object to be gained by studying method. There is no need to insist further just now on a subject which will frequently recur throughout this work, and in regard to which I shall present some new considerations in the next chapter. 59. The first great direct result of the Positive Philosophy is, then, the manifestation by experience of the laws which our intellectual functions follow in their operations; and, consequently, a precise knowledge of the general rules which are suitable for our guidance in the investigation of truth. 60. A second consequence of no less importance and of much more urgent concern, which must immediately result from the establishment of the Positive Philosophy as denned in this chapter, is...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Positive Philosophy A stronger reason was that M. Comte's work, in its original form, does no justice to its importance, even in France; and much less tn England. It is in the form of lectures, the delivery of which was Spread over a long course of years; and this extension of time ne cessitated an amount of recapitulation very injurious to its interest and philosophical aspect. M. Comte's style is singular. It is at the same time rich and diffuse. Every sentence is full fraught with meaning; yet it is overloaded with words. His scrupulous hon esty leads him to guard his enunciations with epithets so constantly repeated, that though, to his own mind, they are necessary in each individual instance, they become wearisome, especially toward the end of his work, and lose their effect by constant repetition. This practice, which might be strength in a series of instructions spread over twenty years, becomes weakness when those instructions are presented as a whole; and it appeared to me worth while to con dense his work, if I undertook nothing more, in order to divest it of the disadvantages arising from redundancy alone. My belief is that thus, if nothing more were done, it might be brought before the minds of many who would be deterred from the study of it by its bulk. What I have given in this volume occupies in the origi nal six volumes averaging nearly' eight hundred pages: and yet I believe it will be found that nothing essential to either statement or illustration is omitted.

Whether gunpowder was now invented, or revived from disuse, the sudden employment of fire-arms is a sign of the times. Military methods were improved, that the in- ire*1""dustrial population might defend itself against the military caste, without undergoing the long and irksome apprenticeship formerly necessary; and the art was particularly suitable to the paid soldiery, whom kings and cities might thus enable to conquer a powerful feudal coalition. I have before pointed out that this new facility did not protract the warlike period; and we must be very well aware that the prevalence of war does not depend on the excellence of its apparatus; for the warfare of our own time is immeasurably less than our knowledge and resources would enable it to be, if the spirit were not wanting. And again, I think it a mistake to suppose that the increased expense of modern warfare is owing to the introduction of new apparatus. I believe, on the contrary, that if we could compare the accounts of ancient and modern warfare, we should find that the new methods are decidedly economical, and that the increased expense arises from the substitution of mercenaries for volunteer armies, --a change which must have produced the same result, if the weapons had remained the same as of old. Again, I must point out the services rendered to natural philosophy by the scientific pursuit of war, --by means at once of the common interest in those departments of knowledge, and of the special establishments which seem to make the military spirit an instrument, as it were, of modern civilization, through the rational positivity which it has thus acquired. The commonest error in regard to...
