The emergence of experimental philosophy was one of the most
significant developments in the early modern period. However, it is
often overlooked in modern scholarship, despite being associated
with leading figures such as Francis Bacon, Robert Boyle, Isaac
Newton, Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, David Hume and Christian Wolff.
Ranging from the early Royal Society of London in the seventeenth
century to the uptake of experimental philosophy in Paris and
Berlin in the eighteenth, this book provides new terms of reference
for understanding early modern philosophy and science, and its
eventual eclipse in the shadow of post-Kantian notions of
empiricism and rationalism. Experimental Philosophy and the Origins
of Empiricism is an integrated history of early modern experimental
philosophy which challenges the rationalism and empiricism
historiography that has dominated Anglophone history of philosophy
for more than a century.
