Can We Fully Comprehend the Intricacies of the Physical World? Some Reflections on the Boundaries of Scientific Knowledge from a Historical Perspective
2024
Overview
Science plays a central role in propelling social progress and evolution as it serves as a source of knowledge that catalysts innovation and fosters critical thinking. In this essay, the author expounds some reflections that aim to elucidate the nature of scientific knowledge and the limits of what we can comprehend about the physical world. Historically, one of the key questions in the philosophy of science has been whether or not we can truly comprehend everything about the physical world. This enquiry delves into the very essence of scientific knowledge. While scientific discovery is typically the result of planned causal research, historical exceptions to this rule exist. In our pursuit of knowledge, it is essential to differentiate between ‘truth’ and ‘reality’. Ultimately, the historical perspective highlights the importance of ongoing critical reflection and debate within the philosophical theory of human knowledge.
