Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of philosophical thought, analyzing the reasons why philosophers have rejected the theories of previous generations. The author argues that a central failing of philosophers has been their zeal to generalize from too few facts. The author critiques the Ne…wtonian theory of gravity, focusing on the notion that objects can act on one another at a distance as an impossibility. However, the author also argues that this theory remains the best available explanation for certain phenomena, and concludes that the search for ultimate causes and a complete understanding of the intricacies of the universe remains an elusive goal.
