The essays in this collection have been written for Gerd Buchdahl,
by colleagues, students and friends, and are self-standing pieces
of original research which have as their main concern the
metaphysics and philosophy of science of the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries. They focus on issues about the development of
philosophical and scientific thought which are raised by or in the
work of such as Bernoulli, Descartes, Galileo, Kant, Leibniz,
Maclaurin, Priestly, Schelling, Vico. Apart from the initial
bio-bibliographical piece and those by Robert Butts and Michael
Power, they do not discuss Buchdahl or his ideas in any systematic,
lengthy, or detailed way. But they are collected under a title
which alludes to the book, Metaphysics and the Philosophy of
Science: The Classical Origins, Descartes to Kant (1969), which is
central in the corpus of his work, and deal with the period and
some of the topics with which that book deals.
