A Defence Of Philosophic Doubt - Arthur James Balfour - Bog

""A Defence of Philosophic Doubt"" is an essay written by Arthur James Balfour that explores the foundations of belief. The book is a critique of the idea that belief should be based on empirical evidence alone and argues that doubt is an essential part of the philosophical process. Balfour argues that the scientific method is limited and cannot provide a complete understanding of the world. He suggests that there are other ways of knowing, such as intuition and faith, that are just as valid. The book is a call to embrace uncertainty and to challenge the assumptions that underlie our beliefs. It is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to question their own beliefs and to consider the role of doubt in the pursuit of knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
