The concept of science

some remarks on the methodological issue "construction" versus "description" in the philosophy of science

Kuno Lorenz

pp. 177-190

Rationalism and empiricism, the kindred branches of modern western philosophy since its inception with Descartes and Hobbes, have made much of the distinction between mind and body. The corresponding schism between the act and the given, reminiscent of the Aristotelian categories ἄγ∈ω and πάσχ∈ω, has consequently to be looked at differently within the philosophy of nature and the philosophy of mind.
