It could certainly be argued that the way in which Hegel criticizes Newton in the Dissertation, the Philosophy of Nature and the lectures on the History of Philosophy, has done more than anything else to prejudice his own reputation.
Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [731]-766) and index. Table of Contents: Foreword. Part One: Metaphysics. Part Two: Mathematics. Part Three: Mechanics. Part Four: Celestial Mechanics. Part Five: Optics. Part Six: Chemistry. Part Seven: Bibliographical. Bibliography. Index. Publisher Marketing: This is a comprehensive survey of the way in which Hegel reacted to the pervasive Newtonianism of his day. Various 18th-century developments in metaphysics, the foundations of mathematics, mechanics, optics and chemistry are considered, together with Hegel's assessment of them. It becomes apparent that the criticism he levels at several of the prevailing attitudes of his day assumes a new significance once a proper distinction is drawn between Newton's own views and those of his professed followers.
