being real, cannot be conditioned by the future, which is unreal.
Such a rejoinder commits the metaphysical petitio principii of taking
for granted that only the present is real. It is obvious that one might
say with equal cogency that the past, being over and gone, is now
unreal and therefore cannot influence the real present.
105. For a fuller explanation of what is meant by continuity, consult
Dedekind, Stetigkeit und irrationale Zahlen, specially §§ 3-5, or
Lamb’s Infinitesimal Calculus, chap. 1. Readers who have been
accustomed to the treatment of continuity by the older philosophical
writers should specially remark (1) that continuity is properly a
characteristic of series, and (2) that though continuity implies
indefinite divisibility, the reverse is not, as was sometimes assumed
by earlier writers, true. The series of rational numbers is a familiar
illustration of endless divisibility without continuity.
106. There would arise further difficulties as to whether the
magnitude of this lapse is a function of A, or whether it is the same in
all cases of causal sequence. But until some one can be found to
defend such a general theory of causal sequence it is premature to
discuss difficulties of detail.
107. For the English reader the best sources of information as to
the “descriptive” theory of science are probably volume i. of
Professor Ward’s Naturalism and Agnosticism; and Mach, the

advantageously add Avenarius, Philosophie als Denken der Welt
gemäss dem Princip des kleinsten Kraftmasses. Professor J. A.
Stewart is surely mistaken (Mind, July 1902) in treating the doctrine
as a discovery of “idealist” metaphysicians. Whatever may be
thought of some of the uses to which “idealists” put the theory, they
cannot claim the credit of its invention.

110. Infra, Bk. III. chap. 4. It will be enough to refer in passing to
the curious blunder which is committed when the principle of
Causality is confounded with the doctrines of the Conservation of
Mass and Energy. That the principle of Causality has nothing to do
with these special physical theories is manifest from the
considerations: (1) That it is at least not self-evident that all causal
relation is physical. Philosophers have indeed denied that one
mental state directly causes another, but no one has based his
denial on the assertion that there can be no causality without mass
and energy. (2) The principle of Causality, as we have seen, is a
postulate. If we are ever to intervene successfully in the course of
events, it must be possible with at least approximate accuracy to
regard events as determined by their antecedents. The doctrines of
conservation of mass and energy are, on the contrary, empirical
generalisations from the observed behaviour of material systems.
Neither science nor practical life in the least requires them as an
indispensable condition of success. In practical life they are never
appealed to, and the ablest exponents of science are most ready to
admit that we have no proof of their validity except so far as it can be
established by actual observation. In short, they are largely a
posteriori, while the principle of Causality is, as already explained, a
priori. See infra, Bk. III. chap. 6, § 6.
111. Neither can have a first term, because each has two opposite
senses, positive and negative in the one case, before and after in the
other.
112. I suppose I need not remind my reader that when a number is
spoken of as the actual sum of an infinite series (as when 2 is called
the sum of the series 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + ... to infinity), the word
sum is used in a derivative and improper sense for the limiting value
assumed by the sum of n terms as n increases indefinitely. See
Lamb, Infinitesimal Calculus, p. 11.
113. For the various views here summarised, see as original
sources, Geulincx, Metaphysica Vera, Pars Prima, 5-8;
Malebranche, Entretiens sur la Metaphysique et sur la Religion, 7th
dialogue; Berkeley, New Theory of Vision, pp. 147, 148; Principles of
Human Knowledge, §§ 25-33, 51-53, 57, 150; Second Dialogue
between Hylas and Philonous.
114. Geulincx expresses the principle in the following formula (op.
cit., pt. 1, 5): quod nescis quomodo fiat, id non facis.
115. Not that existence can intelligibly be treated as a property; on
this point Kant’s famous criticism of the “ontological proof” seems
conclusive. But from the point of view of Leibnitz it must be imagined
as an additional predicate, somehow added by the creative act of
God to those already contained in the concept of the world as
“possible.”
116. For Leibnitz’s doctrine consult further, The Monadology etc.,
of Leibniz, edit. by R. Latta, Introduction, pts. 2 and 3, and
translations of Monadology, New System of the Communication of
Substances, with the First and Third Explanations of the New
System. Also see the elaborate criticisms of B. Russell, The
Philosophy of Leibniz, chap. 4 and following chapters.
BOOK III
COSMOLOGY—THE INTERPRETATION
OF NATURE
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTORY
§ 1. Distinction between the experimental sciences and a Philosophy of Nature
and Mind. The former concerned with the description, the latter with the
interpretation, of facts. § 2. Cosmology is the critical examination of the
special characteristics of the physical order. Its main problems are: (1) the
problem of the nature of Material Existence; (2) problem of the justification of
the concept of the Mechanical Uniformity of Nature; (3) problems of Space
and Time; (4) problem of the Significance of Evolution; (5) problem of the
Place of descriptive Physical Science in the System of Human Knowledge.
