Wojcik’s “Robert Boyle and the Limits of Reason.” This insightful study, perfect for “The Bookish Owl” patrons, delves into the theological landscape of seventeenth-century England, revealing how it shaped Boyle’s understanding of reason’s boundaries. Wojcik meticulously examines Boyle’s three categories—the incomprehensible, the inexplicable, and the unsociable—demonstrating their impact on his philosophy of natural knowledge. Discover Boyle’s profound belief that divine design intentionally limited human intellect, reserving ultimate truths for the afterlife. A compelling read for those interested in the intersection of science, theology, and philosophy.
