Sinopse

The Interpretation of Nature is a philosophical and scientific work written by Nathaniel Southgate Shaler. Published in 1893, the book explores the relationship between science and philosophy, and the ways in which humans can interpret and understand the natural world.

He suggests that philosophy and metaphysics are also necessary to fully comprehend the world around us.
