Sinopsis

The New Rationalism by Edward Gleason Spaulding is a philosophical work that explores the development of a constructive realism based on modern logic and science. The book delves into the criticism of opposed philosophical systems and presents a new way of thinking that is grounded in reason and empirical evidence. Spaulding argues that this new rationalism is necessary in order to overcome the limitations of traditional philosophy and to create a more coherent and comprehensive understanding of the world. The book covers a wide range of topics, including epistemology, ontology, ethics, and metaphysics, and provides a detailed analysis of the major philosophical movements of the time. Overall, The New Rationalism is a thought-provoking and challenging work that offers a fresh perspective on the nature of reality and the role of philosophy in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor

As I send this manuscript to the publishers, I am keenlyaware of how far the results that it presents fall short of attaining that ideal both of method and of accomplishment which has been before me during the period of composition, and which I have explained inC hapters I. and III. Yet coincidentally with the closing of my labors I find that I am convinced more strongly than ever that, although there are many other ways, of undoubted value, in which to study philosophy, nevertheless the point of view and the method of treating problems which this book presents offer one way or mode of approach that has thus far been of much too infrequent use in philosophical investigation. For it has been my experience, especially during a number of years of teaching atP rinceton University, as well as of presenting philosophical problems to the scientific workers of theM arine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass., that there is, at present at least, a much deeper interest in a systematic than in a historical treatment of philosophy. An opportunity to satisfy such an interest would be presented to a far greater extent than it now is, if only the effort were made in philosophy, as it is in science, not to emphasize history, but to investigate problems of fact, and finally to obtain such a fairly extensive body of knowledge as will receive general acceptance and be recognized as meaning a welldefined advance and progress. The present tendency in philosophy, at least in our educational institutions, is, however, directly opposed to such a procedure, for it is to the almost exclusive study of the history of philosophy that both student and general reader are urged and directed. The result is that the average student of philosophy is left so perplexed through, e.g., the multiplicity of systems which his study discloses to him, that his dissatisfaction usually far exceeds
