A Religion for Materialism
The religiously inclined have always rejected materialism. The thesis of this study is that there may have been good reasons for them to do so until comparatively recent times but that the same reasons no longer exist. Our knowledge of matter has not only increased, it has also been altered so completely that there is no more justification for disapproving of materialism on religious grounds
Full Concreteness and the Re-Materialization of Matter
We have been going through a period in the philosophy of science in which it has been dominated by the theory of the dematerialization of matter. From Eddington in 1927 to Hanson in the present day, this theory, in one formulation or another, has been maintained. Its adherents suppose that matter upon examination can be resolved into mental constructs of every description, from organized sets of sense impressions to mathematical equations. The id…
Les origines de l'empirisme scientifique
The Philosophy of Tools
Man has transformed his immediate environment into one of material culture, and consequently himself into civilized man, by means of tools and languages. Although tools are no less important than languages, they have been underestimated. For tools are not merely articles of utility but serve all of the human needs. Tools are material objects employed to alter other material objects (where man himself is one of the material objects). Tools may be …
Technology as Skills
The world inhabited by the modern human individual is largely a man-made world. It is a world of artifacts, of material things, of cultigens, and of sounds altered through human agency, all designed for his use by his fellows. Houses, streets and vehicles, farms and factories, cultivated plants and domesticated animals, machines, and languages, make up the bulk of his environment, each requiring for its management some particular skill. What huma…

Religious Platonism
In Plato’s Laws is the earliest surviving fully developed cosmological argument. His influence on the philosophy of religion is wide ranging and this book examines both that and the influence of religion on Plato. Central to Plato’s thought is the theory of forms, which holds that there exists a realm of forms, perfect ideals of which things in this world are but imperfect copies. In this book, originally published in 1959, Feibleman finds two di…

The Scientific Philosophy
Science is a comparatively recent affair, but the alternatives at our command in philosophy are old ones. The range of Greek philosophy seems to have an astonishing stability. The philosophy of religion was used for centuries to bolster religion. It is some indication of the rapid growth of the prestige of science that now the philosophy of science is used to bolster philosophy

gation. If we are to consider the relations between and engineering, the relation between and will have first to be made very clear; and for this purpose we shall need working definitions. Once stated, these definitions may seem an elaboration of the obvious and an oversimplification. But the elaboration often seems obvious only after it has been stated, and the definitions may have to be simple in order to bring out the necessary distinctions. B…

The Scientific Outlook of Cézanne
For some while now it has been the fashion to write about Cézanne. Numerous exhibitions of his paintings have been held and a flood of criticism in notices and books has poured forth; yet much remains to be seen and said. The reason for this is that his peculiar approach to art was of the kind which continues to excite interest in the medium itself. We get from him not only an esthetic enjoyment but an imagination stimulated to dwell upon the pos…

The Mythology of Science
The complexity and the technical obscurity of the scientific method have rendered science ever likely to be misunderstood both by scientists themselves and by the general public. Difficulties which remain unrecognized constitute the most formidable obstacles to success in any field. There are such difficulties lurking in the treatment which the scientific method accords its subject-matter. In this essay, I propose to point to one such pitfall in …

Reid and the Origins of Modern Realism
The popularity of the ontological theory of realism, which has included so many philosophers of major as well as of minor importance, leads to speculations concerning the historical occasions which have prompted its revival. For a long while, realism has been a term so much abused that it might be well to define the particular meaning to be employed here. Realism is the doctrine that universals and values have their being independent of knowing s…

Normative Organization and Empirical Fields
We must begin by distinguishing between sciences and empirical fields. The empirical fields are the elementary divisions of the natural world into levels for purposes of examination. The sciences consist in the method of examining those fields, together with the presuppositions and findings of such a method. Throughout this essay, we shall consider only the empirical fields as the subject-matter of the sciences, and the way in which the sciences …

A Set of Postulates and A Definition for Science
The term science is used to cover three separate categories, to which throughout this paper we shall give three separate names. There is (1) the field in which science operates. This is the external world of natural phenomena, partly uniform and partly chance. There is (2) the science itself. This is the laboratory of instruments, techniques, operations, the method by which the field is studied. Finally, there is (3) the laws. This is the level o…
