This book both introduces the philosophy of science through examination of the occult and examines the occult rigorously enough to raise central issues in the philosophy of science. Placed in the context of the occult, philosophy of science issues become immediately understandable and forcefully compelling. Divergent views on astrology, parapsychology, and quantum mechanics mysticism emphasize topics standard to the philosophy of science. Such issues as confirmation and selection for testing, causality and time, explanation and the nature of scientific laws, the status of theoretical entities, the problem of demarcation, theory and observation, and science and values are discussed. Significantly revised, this second edition presents an entirely new section of quantum mechanics and mysticism including instructions from N. David Mermin for constructing a device which dramatically illustrates the genuinely puzzling phenomena of quantum mechanics. A more complete and current review of research on astrology has been included in this new edition, and the section on the problem of demarcation has been broadened.

Philosophy of Science and the Occult has two aims: to introduce the philosophy of science through an examination of the occult, and to examine the occult rigorously enough to raise central issues in philosophy of science. Patrick Grim has compiled selections by authors with divergent views on astrology, parapsychology, and UFO's to emphasize topics standard to the philosophy of science. He discusses issues such as confirmation and selection for testing, possibility and a priori probabilities, causality and time, explanation and the nature of scientific laws, the status of theoretical entities, the problem of demarcation, theory and observation, and science and values. A sketch of where these arise in the collection accompanies the table of contents. The context of the occult serves to make the initial introduction of these issues immediately understandable and forcefully compelling.

From the PREFACE BY THE AUTHOR. Is not the history of civilization, in the most extended sense of this word, the history of mankind in a social state, one of the most important of all our studies? About twenty years ago, consulting less my talents than my zeal, I undertook to retrace this history, and in 1813, I published an introduction, in order to give an idea of the manner in which I thought it should be treated. This essay received some encouragement, which only convinced me of the necessity of examining more profoundly so important a subject. The history and origin of the sciences occupied a large place in those researches, in which I was engaged, and I was soon convinced that it was impossible to have a just idea of the extent to which the sciences had been carried, among the ancients, without examining the kind of knowledge employed by the founders of those sciences, in working the wonders related in their annals. In the course of this inquiry, I discovered that much information was shut up in the temples, and employed there, during many ages, to excite either wonder or fear; but, in the flight of time, decaying and at last fading altogether away, leaving behind only imperfect traditions, which have since been ranked as fables. The attempts to restore life to these ancient intellectual monuments, accomplished a part of my task which, at the same time, filled up a great period in the history of the human mind. My treatise on this object soon became too ample to form merely a part of the principal work for which it was originally intended. It was easy to detach it, although connected with the object which I had proposed to myself to attain; and thus separated, it forms a whole, susceptible of special interest. I shall content myself with bearing in remembrance the principle which has guided me in my various researches : that principle which distinguishes two very strongly marked forms of civilization, the fixed form, which formerly governed almost the whole world, and which still subsists in Asia; and-the perfectible form, which more or less reigns throughout Europe, although it is not there fully developed; nor has it as yet, borne all those fruits which its elements permit us to anticipate in its progress to perfection....
