The Mechanistic Principle And The Non Mechanical - Paul Carus - Bog

""The Mechanistic Principle and the Non-Mechanical"" by Paul Carus is a philosophical work that explores the relationship between the mechanistic principle and the non-mechanical. The book delves into the idea that the mechanistic principle, which refers to the belief that everything in the universe can be explained in terms of physical laws and mechanisms, is not sufficient to explain all aspects of reality. Carus argues that there are non-mechanical elements in the universe that cannot be explained solely through the mechanistic principle, such as consciousness, free will, and morality. The author also discusses how the mechanistic principle has influenced various fields, including science, philosophy, and religion, and how alternative perspectives can offer a more complete understanding of the world. Through his analysis, Carus aims to encourage readers to consider a more holistic approach to understanding reality that incorporates both the mechanistic and non-mechanical principles. The book is written in clear and accessible language, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in philosophy and metaphysics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
