The book is aimed at students of philosophy and anyone interested in understanding the fundamental problems of human existence.

Carus, an independent philosopher who studied and published on Eastern and Western philosophy, was instrumental in raising Western awareness of Buddhism at the turn of the century. Carus writes in the Preface that: The view here presented, in spite of all our differences with Kant, may be considered as the natural outcome of Kant's philosophy. The view here presented unites two qualities which may appear contradictory at first sight. It is radical, and at the same time conservative...and, Our fundamental conceptions of world and life, therefore, for practical purposes, for our individual welfare, for the destiny of our nation and for that of humanity, are of greatest importance. On the philosophy of our age depends the health of our religious, our scientific, our industrial, our mercantile, our political and our social development.

""The Mechanistic Principle and the Non-Mechanical"" by Paul Carus is a philosophical work that explores the relationship between the mechanistic principle and the non-mechanical. The book delves into the idea that the mechanistic principle, which refers to the belief that everything in the universe can be explained in terms of physical laws and mechanisms, is not sufficient to explain all aspects of reality. Carus argues that there are non-mechanical elements in the universe that cannot be explained solely through the mechanistic principle, such as consciousness, free will, and morality. The author also discusses how the mechanistic principle has influenced various fields, including science, philosophy, and religion, and how alternative perspectives can offer a more complete understanding of the world. Through his analysis, Carus aims to encourage readers to consider a more holistic approach to understanding reality that incorporates both the mechanistic and non-mechanical principles. The book is written in clear and accessible language, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in philosophy and metaphysics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
