Sinopsis

Systeme De La Nature, Part 1: Ou Des Loix Du Monde Physique And Du Monde Moral (1781) is a philosophical book written by Paul Henri Thiry, Baron d'Holbach. The book is divided into two parts, the first part dealing with the laws of the physical world and the second part dealing with the laws of the moral world. In the first part, Holbach argues that everything in the physical world can be explained by the laws of nature and that there is no need to invoke the existence of a God or any supernatural being. He believes that the universe is governed by deterministic laws and that everything that happens is the result of cause and effect. Holbach also argues that the concept of free will is an illusion and that human beings are not truly free to make their own choices.In the second part, Holbach turns his attention to the moral world and argues that morality is not based on divine commandments but rather on the principles of reason and self-interest. He believes that human beings are naturally selfish and that morality is a social construct that is designed to promote the well-being of society as a whole. Holbach also argues that religion is a source of superstition and that it has been used throughout history to control and manipulate people.Overall, Systeme De La Nature, Part 1: Ou Des Loix Du Monde Physique And Du Monde Moral is a groundbreaking work of philosophy that challenges many of the traditional beliefs of its time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the nature of the universe and human morality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
