The limits of definition

Moritz Schlick

pp. 27-31

Résumé

Have we, by taking the steps described above, attained the desired goal of absolute certainty and precision in knowing? Unquestionably, we have made considerable progress. By using defined concepts, scientific knowledge raises itself far above the level of knowing in everyday life. Whenever we have at our disposal suitably defined concepts, knowledge becomes possible in a form practically free from doubt.
