“We find sects and parties in most branches of science; and disputes which are carried on from age to age, without being brought to an issue. Sophistry has been more effectually excluded from mathematics and natural philosophy than from other sciences. In mathematics it had no place from the beginning; mathematicians having had the wisdom to define accurately the terms they use, and to lay down, as axioms, the first principles on which their reasoning is grounded. Accordingly, we find no parties among mathematicians, and hardly any disputes.” FirstsHas BeensPhilosophyUseAgeTermNaturalPartyPrinciplesIssuesMathematicsLaysReasoningBranchesMathematicianGroundedDisputesSectsAxiomsExcludedSophistryNatural Philosophy Author:Thomas Reid
