Our Knowledge of the External World As a Field for Scientific Method in Philosophy - Bertrand Russell

from The Astral Plane · host C.W. Leadbeater

Bertrand Russell's "Our Knowledge of the External World As a Field for Scientific Method in Philosophy" presents his Lowell Lectures from 1914, where he meticulously examines how our sensory experiences relate to fundamental concepts in physics such as space, time, and matter. Through logical analysis, he seeks to bring clarity to philosophical inquiries, similar to the breakthroughs achieved in mathematics during the late nineteenth century. This work remains relevant today as it challenges listeners to reconsider the foundations of their understanding of reality and encourages a rigorous approach to philosophical questions.
