Publisher's Synopsis
The Book of Analysis or A New Method of Experience: Whereby the Induction of the Novum Organon is a philosophical work written by Tweedy John Todd in 1831. The book presents a new method of experience that aims to improve upon the induction method introduced by Francis Bacon in his Novum Organon. Todd argues that the traditional method of induction is flawed and unreliable, and proposes a new approach that involves the careful analysis of individual instances of phenomena. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a critique of the traditional method of induction and explores the limitations of empirical observation. The second part presents Todd's new method of experience, which he claims is more reliable and effective in discovering the true nature of phenomena. Throughout the book, Todd draws on examples from various areas of knowledge, including physics, chemistry, and medicine, to illustrate his arguments. He also discusses the importance of language and the role it plays in shaping our understanding of the world. Overall, The Book of Analysis or A New Method of Experience is a significant contribution to the field of philosophy and scientific methodology. It challenges traditional modes of thinking and offers a new perspective on how we can gain knowledge about the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
