To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These latter are no longer preoccupied with construction ; the task they set themselves is to examine the sohdity of the constructions of EMPIRICISM AND NATURALISM 251 the scientist. We have found the same tendency in Germany represented by Avenarius and Mach, and in France by Milhaud and Poincaré ; in England its chief representative is Clerk Maxwell. We will only touch upon it very slightly here, because we are already acquainted with its procedure and its conclusions. Simplificatory by natur...e, it cannot admit of a great variety of expression : hence it is sufficient to know a single writer, in order to know all.
For Maxwell the truth of principles lies in their validity, and this in turn depends on their practical utiHty. As pragmatism would say, ideas are vaHd in so far as they work ; thus, for example, the importance of the principle of energy hes in the fact that it enables us to consider all physical phenomena as exemphfications, or more specifically as transformations, of energy.
