The Philosophy Of Common Sense (1907)

The Philosophy of Common Sense, written by Frederic Harrison and published in 1907, is a philosophical treatise that examines the concept of common sense and its role in human thought and behavior. The book argues that common sense is not just a collection of practical knowledge and instincts, but rather a fundamental aspect of human consciousness that underlies all of our beliefs and actions. Harrison explores the origins of common sense, its relationship to reason and intuition, and its implications for ethics, politics, and social organization. He also critiques various philosophical schools of thought, including empiricism, idealism, and pragmatism, and argues that they fail to fully appreciate the importance of common sense in human experience. The Philosophy of Common Sense is a thought-provoking and insightful work that continues to be relevant to contemporary debates in philosophy and psychology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
