Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essai de Philosophie Positive
Aussi, quand on écrit, il°ne faut pas recher cher l'origine des mots, leur étymologie, mais bien s'inquiéter de leur acception actuelle et s'y conformer; et quand un mot a été employé dans divers sens, on ne doit s'en servir que dans l'ac ception le plus en usage.
