Wojcik reveals the theological context within which Boyle developed his views on reason's limits. After arguing that a correct interpretation of his views on \"things above reason\" depends upon reading his works in the context of theological controversies in seventeenth-century England, Professor Wojcik details exactly how Boyle's three specific categories of things that transcended reason--the incomprehensible, the inexplicable, and the unsociable--affected his conception of what a natural philosopher could hope to know. Also detailed is Boyle's belief that God deliberately limited the human intellect in order to reserve a full knowledge of both theology and natural philosophy for the afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51944727544096,"sku":"NEW0521525225","price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/robert-boyle-and-the-limits-of-reason-0521525225","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
