Outlines of Cosmic Philosophy V4 - John Fiske - Bog

Outlines of Cosmic Philosophy V4 is a book written by John Fiske that explores the philosophical implications of the scientific discoveries of the late 19th century. The book is divided into four volumes, each of which delves into a different aspect of the universe and humanity's place within it. Volume 4 focuses on the concept of evolution and how it has shaped human society and culture. Fiske argues that evolution is not just a biological process, but a cosmic one that affects all aspects of existence. He explores the history of human evolution, from the earliest civilizations to modern times, and discusses the role of science and technology in shaping our understanding of the universe. Fiske also examines the relationship between religion and science, arguing that they are not mutually exclusive but can coexist in a complementary way. Overall, Outlines of Cosmic Philosophy V4 offers a thought-provoking look at the intersection of science and philosophy, and how our understanding of the universe has evolved over time.1902.
