The System Of Nature V2

The System of Nature Volume 2 is a philosophical treatise written by Baron d'Holbach. This book is a continuation of the first volume and presents a comprehensive argument for atheism, materialism, and determinism. The author argues that the universe is a self-sufficient and self-sustaining system that operates according to natural laws, without the need for supernatural intervention. He also asserts that human beings are not free agents, but rather are determined by their environment and biology. The book is divided into several sections that explore various aspects of the author's argument, including the nature of matter, the origins of life, and the role of reason in human behavior. The System of Nature Volume 2 is an important work of Enlightenment philosophy that challenges traditional religious beliefs and offers a rational and scientific alternative to supernatural explanations of the universe.As this agent was invisible, as his mode of action was inconceivable, he made him a spirit, a word that really means nothing more than that he is ignorant of his essence, or that he acts like the breath of which he cannot trace the motion. Thus, in speaking of spirituality, he designated an occult quality, which he deemed suitable to a concealed being, whose mode of action was always imperceptible to the senses.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
