Publisher's Synopsis
The Book of Analysis or A New Method of Experience: Whereby the Induction of the Novum Organon is a book written by Tweedy John Todd in 1831. The book presents a new method of experience which aims to enhance the process of induction in the Novum Organon. The Novum Organon is a philosophical work by Francis Bacon that outlines a new method of scientific inquiry based on observation and experimentation. Todd's book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the Novum Organon and discusses the limitations of the traditional method of experience. Todd argues that the traditional method is flawed because it relies on generalizations and assumptions rather than empirical evidence. He proposes a new method of experience that is based on a careful analysis of individual instances and the use of analogies to draw conclusions.The second part of the book provides a detailed description of Todd's new method of experience. He argues that this method is superior to the traditional method because it allows for a more accurate and precise understanding of the natural world. Todd provides several examples to illustrate the effectiveness of his method, including the analysis of the properties of light and the classification of animals.Overall, The Book of Analysis or A New Method of Experience: Whereby the Induction of the Novum Organon is an important work in the history of scientific inquiry. It presents a new approach to scientific investigation that emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence and careful analysis. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the philosophy of science and the history of scientific thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
