About The Book: Introduction to Philosophy: An Inquiry after a Rational System of Scientific Principles in their Relation to Ultimate Reality by George Trumbull Ladd, first published in 1887, explores the nature of philosophy and its connection to science and ultimate reality. Ladd aims to present a systematic approach to philosophical inquiry, addressing key topics such as metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and the philosophy of mind. He argues for a rational framework that integrates scientific principles with the pursuit of understanding ultimate truths about existence, consciousness, and the universe. About The Author: George Trumbull Ladd (1842–1921) was an American philosopher, psychologist, and educator, notable for introducing experimental psychology to the United States.
