Reseña del editor
Man is thtf Interpreter of Nature, Science the right interpretation. II- The Senses place before us the Characters of theB ook of Nature; but these convey no knowledge to us, till we have discovered the Alphabet by which they are to be read. IIL The Alphabet by means of which we interpret Phenomena, consists of the I deas existing in our own minds; for these give to the phenomena that coherence and significance which is not an object of sense. IV. The antithesis of 8mse and I deas is the foundation of the Philosophy of Science. No knowledge can exist without the union, no philosophy without the separation, of these two elements. V. Fact and Theory correspond to Sense on the one hand, and to I deas on the other, so far as we are consciom of our I deas: but all facts involve ideas unconsciomly; and thus the distinction ofF acts and Theories is not tenable, as that of Sense and I deas is. VI. Sensations and I deas in our knowledge are like Matter andF orm in bodies.
