Riassunto:

A General View of Positivism is a philosophical work written by the French philosopher Auguste Comte. The book is considered to be one of the most important works in the development of positivism, a philosophical school of thought that emphasizes the use of scientific methods to understand the world. The book is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the concept of positivism and its history, including its roots in the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. Comte argues that positivism is the only philosophy that can provide a complete understanding of the world, and that it is based on the scientific method.The second part of the book focuses on the development of positivist philosophy, including its principles and methods. Comte argues that positivism is based on the idea that all knowledge is based on empirical observation and that scientific methods should be used to study the world. He also discusses the importance of social science in understanding human behavior and society.The third part of the book explores the practical applications of positivist philosophy, including its impact on education, politics, and religion. Comte argues that positivism can provide a framework for creating a more just and equitable society, and that it can be used to solve many of the problems facing the world today.Overall, A General View of Positivism is a seminal work in the development of positivist philosophy, and it continues to be studied and debated by philosophers and social scientists today.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1880 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
