Publisher's Synopsis
Since "the limits of the cognition of nature" in the materialistic sense have been drawn in such a manner that no ambitious materialists could remove them, a new skepticism in regard to a possible cognition and knowledge of the world has spread among discouraged thinkers, leading them to cognitionless resignation. But the failure of the materialists search after cognition, limited in mechanism, does not require to suppose that world and nature are essentially unknowable; all it means is that they are unknowable to mechanistic materialism.
