Meer over het boek

The doctrine of positivism, developed by Comte in the nineteenth century, laid the groundwork for modern secular humanism. It emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence and scientific reasoning while advocating for a society grounded in rational thought and ethical principles. This philosophical approach marked a significant shift away from religious explanations of the world, influencing contemporary views on morality and knowledge.
