The Determinate World

- Kant and Helmholtz on the Physical Meaning of Geometry

About The Determinate World

Offers an interpretation of Hermann von Helmholtz's work on the epistemology of geometry. This book argues against the interpretation of Helmholtz's work by suggesting that for the latter, it is less the inductive character of geometry that makes it empirical, and rather the regulative requirement that the system of science be empirically closed.
