First Edition of Comte's major work. "Comte's sociology was overly intertwined with his conception of the right polity. In Comte's view, society had broken down with the French Revolution. The Revolution had been necessary because the old order, based on outdated "theological" Catholic knowledge, no longer served as a respectable basis for shared opinions; it had been undermined by the progress of the sciences. The Revolution itself offered no grounds for the reorganization of society because it was "negative" and metaphysical in its assumptions. The task, therefore, was to provide a new religion, and a new clergy, that could once again unify society. Comte's solution was a science on which all could agree. In place of the Catholic priesthood, Comte proposed a scientific-industrial elite that would announce the "invariable laws" to society." (Encycl. of Philosophy) "His attempt to link up all science, to relate its development to the progress of society, and to combine it with a system of improvement with humanity in place of an external supreme being, is still one of the major documents of secular philosophy."

First Edition. "[Comte's] political philosophy, elaborated on the basis of his positive sociology, was a noteworthy attempt to reconcile science with religion, and the ideals of the Revolution of 1789 with the doctrine of the counter-revolution of his own timeComte's sociology was overly intertwined with his conception of the right polity. In Comte's view, society had broken down with the French Revolution. The Revolution had been necessary because the old order, based on outdated "theological" Catholic knowledge, no longer served as a respectable basis for shared opinions; it had been undermined by the progress of the sciences.

Edition originale du maître ouvrage de Comte, qui construit une philosophie des sciences en partant des mathématiques pour aller à la sociologie et à la science politique, ainsi qu'une philosophie de l'histoire qui conçoit le processus historique comme une avancée vers davantage de rationalité scientifique (dite « positive »), et moins de théologie et de spéculation métaphysique sur les réalités transcendantes. Une philosophie qui marchait de pair avec la machine à vapeur et les chemins de fer!
