Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Natural Philosophy, Vol. 1 of 2: Designed as a Text Book, for the Use of the Students in Yale College; Mechanics and Hydrostatics We cannot, however, agree with those instructors who have yielded to the spirit of the age, (which is still hunting after a royal road to knowledge, ) so far as to forsake demonstration altogether, and substitute for the mathematical elements of Natural Philosophy, text books in which the principles of the science rest on no better basis than more popular illustration. Works of this kind may, indeed, furnish us with very useful materials for exhibiting the applications of these principles. The most successful writer of this class is Dr. Lardner, whose treatise on Mechanics, in particular, is an ele gant specimen of a popular work on science. We have accordingly made frequent use of that work in the practical part of Mechanics. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Nature the Soul and God written by Jean W. Rioux and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-04-14 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete title of one of the most famous works ever written, Isaac Newton's Principia, was actually Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, or "The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy". Sadly, many contemporary philosophers would be hard-pressed to say just what natural philosophy (or philosophy of nature) is all about. Without question, the philosophy of nature has received relatively less attention than ethics and metaphysics for some time. In "Nature, the Soul, and God," Jean W. Rioux has brought together a number of important readings in natural philosophy, from the Pre-Socratic philosophers and Aristotle to the 19th-century entomologist Jean-Henri Fabre. Collectively, they present three ways in which one might conceive of the natural world in a pre-scientific reflection upon the way things are: either the classical materialism of Empedocles, Democritus, and Epicurus, the formalism of Plato, or the hylomorphic view espoused and defended by Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas. In the sections following the consideration of nature are selections from these representative views concerning the immortality of the soul and the existence of God. Through the medium of philosophers both ancient and modern, Rioux makes the point that one's philosophical account of the natural world will have an impact upon how one regards human nature, as well as divinity itself. It all begins with nature.
