The Principles of Science

Abstract

PROF. MACH is best known to English readers by the translation of his “Die Mechanik in ihrer Entwickelung.” Those who have read that admirable book and know its interest will probably hasten to learn more of that philosophy of science which is only dimly indicated therein in a few casual but suggestive remarks. Perhaps they will be disappointed.

Erkenntnis und Irrtum
