Über das eBook

The Scientific View by Bertrand Russell... This famous book, written by the great philosopher Bertrand Russell, examines the impact of science on human life through three matters, the first of which is the nature and scope of scientific knowledge, the second of which is the power of practical use derived from the scientific approach, and the third of which is what must arise from images. The new organization required by the scientific approach includes changes in social life and traditional systems. Science, as it is knowledge, is naturally the basis of the other two matters, because all the results of science are the result of the knowledge it provides. Man has been prevented from realizing his hopes by his ignorance of the means, and the more this ignorance disappears, the greater his ability to shape himself and his natural environment in the way he prefers. . The new power that science creates is good to the extent of the wisdom that characterizes the person, and it is an evil force to the extent of the foolishness in the person. If scientific civilization is to be a good civilization, then an increase in knowledge must be accompanied by an increase in wisdom, that is, a sound understanding of the goals of life, and this in itself is something that science does not provide. Therefore, an increase in knowledge is not sufficient to achieve true advancement, even if it provides one of the components of advancement.
