These studies investigate the concept of nature and science in
early Enlightenment thinking on natural law and the contribution to
its development made by Albrecht von Haller's scientific method.
Relevant to this is Haller's response to the Newtonianism of Willem
Jacob 'sGravesande, who proposed an experimentalist
reinterpretation of Newton's mathematical approach to science and
based his scientific epistemology on 'moral' evidence. This is the
background to Haller's assessment of the hypotheses around 1750.
The amalgamation of natural and human sciences, whose analogies had
established the matrix of natural law, is thus a constitutive
element in Haller's understanding of physiology and its
significance for a social ethic that he championed against
neo-Spinozian and materialistic interpretations of nature.
