Our Knowledge of the External World: As a Field for Scientific Method in Philosophy

by Bertrand Russell

Bertrand Russell's 'Our Knowledge of the External World' delves into the intricate relationship between our sensory experiences and the scientific concepts that shape our understanding of the external world. Through rigorous logical analysis, Russell explores the nature of space, time, and matter, questioning the extent to which our knowledge of these fundamental aspects of reality is derived from direct experience or abstract reasoning.
