Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the comparative validity and certainty of physics and metaphysics by delving into the nature of their respective subject matters. Exploring the philosophies of notable thinkers past and present, including Newton, Leibnitz, and Whewell, the author argues that while the laws of physics govern the relative, the conditioned, and the mutable, metaphysics deals with immutable and necessary truths. Taking a deeper dive into the properties and laws belonging to each, the author demonstrates that absoluteness and certainty are to be ascribed to the latter and not the former. This insightful analysis offers a fresh perspective on the nature of scientific knowledge, shedding new light on the relationship between physics and metaphysics and emphasizing the enduring significance of these fields in our understanding of the world. Its rigorous examination will appeal to scholars, students, and anyone eager to explore the frontiers of human knowledge and the nature of reality itself.
