Synopsis

The First Principles of a New System of Philosophy is a book written by Herbert Spencer, a prominent English philosopher and sociologist. The book was first published in 1862 and is considered one of the most important works in the history of philosophy.In this book, Spencer presents his ideas on a new system of philosophy based on the principles of evolution and natural selection. He argues that all aspects of human life, including morality, politics, and economics, can be explained through the laws of evolution.Spencer's philosophy is based on the idea that everything in the universe is interconnected and that all things are constantly evolving. He argues that humans are not separate from nature but are a part of it, and that our understanding of the world should be based on scientific observation and analysis.The book is divided into two parts. In the first part, Spencer lays out his fundamental principles of philosophy, including the laws of evolution, the principle of continuity, and the law of the persistence of force. In the second part, he applies these principles to various fields of study, including psychology, ethics, and politics.Overall, The First Principles of a New System of Philosophy is a complex and influential work that has had a significant impact on the development of modern philosophy and social science. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the evolution of scientific thought.1880. A System of Synthetic Philosophy Vol. 1.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
