Book Overview

""Science and Speculation"" is a collection of essays written by George Henry Lewes, a philosopher and literary critic, and published in 1904. The book explores the relationship between science and philosophy, and the role of speculation in scientific inquiry. Lewes argues that while science is grounded in empirical evidence and observation, speculation plays a crucial role in the development of scientific theories and hypotheses. He also examines the limitations of scientific knowledge and the potential for error and uncertainty. The essays cover a range of topics, including evolution, psychology, and the nature of consciousness. Lewes draws on the work of prominent scientists and philosophers of his time, including Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer, to support his arguments. Overall, ""Science and Speculation"" offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between science and philosophy, and the importance of speculation in scientific inquiry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
