Exploring the philosophy of science, this collection features three significant works by Henri Poincaré, who emphasizes intuition and prediction alongside traditional scientific methods. His discussions on non-Euclidean geometries and the relativity of space significantly influenced the development of modern physics, paving the way for Einstein's theories. This edition includes Halsted's authorized translation, meticulously hand-edited and re-indexed for clarity and completeness, making Poincaré's groundbreaking ideas accessible to contemporary readers.
