Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, an extensive and ambitious work in 12 volumes, focuses on the concepts of 'positivism' and Comtean philosophy. Published between 1830 and 1842, the author sought to challenge the then-dominant philosophies of religion and science with a view toward replacing them with positivism - a system centered around the idea that only scientific knowledge, derived through observation and experimentation, could be considered authentic knowledge. The author's main thesis was that human beings could and should study the world around them solely through the lens of science. This would ultimately help humanity to better understand its own origins, developmental trajectory, and better predict its future course.
