Aphorisms Concerning Ideas, Science And The Language Of Science is a book written by William Whewell in 1840. The book is a collection of short, pithy sayings or aphorisms that explore the nature of ideas, science, and the language of science. Whewell, a prominent philosopher and historian of science, was interested in the ways in which scientific ideas are formed, communicated, and understood. In this book, he offers insights into the processes of scientific inquiry, the role of language in scientific discourse, and the importance of clear and concise communication in the scientific community. The aphorisms are organized into chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of scientific thought and practice. Throughout the book, Whewell emphasizes the importance of rigorous thinking, careful observation, and logical reasoning in the pursuit of scientific knowledge. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of science, as well as for scientists and scholars seeking to improve their understanding of scientific methodology and communication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Man is thtf Interpreter of Nature, Science the right interpretation. II- The Senses place before us the Characters of theB ook of Nature; but these convey no knowledge to us, till we have discovered the Alphabet by which they are to be read. IIL The Alphabet by means of which we interpret Phenomena, consists of the I deas existing in our own minds; for these give to the phenomena that coherence and significance which is not an object of sense. IV. The antithesis of 8mse and I deas is the foundation of the Philosophy of Science. No knowledge can exist without the union, no philosophy without the separation, of these two elements. V. Fact and Theory correspond to Sense on the one hand, and to I deas on the other, so far as we are consciom of our I deas: but all facts involve ideas unconsciomly; and thus the distinction ofF acts and Theories is not tenable, as that of Sense and I deas is. VI. Sensations and I deas in our knowledge are like Matter andF orm in bodies.
