‎---- Troisième édition EN PARTIE ORIGINALE AUGMENTEE DE NOTES DE L'AUTEUR ---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "The genesis of Meyerson's first and most famous work, Identité et réalité, was in his Kopp-inspired studies of chemistry before Lavoisier, which he found to be linked to modern chemistry by an ontological common denominator. An extension of his inquiry beyond the development of the study of the natural sciences from antiquity to his own day. His program was the unfulfilled one of Comte : to discover a posteriori the a priori principles guiding thought in its search for the nature of reality... Since for Meyerons the principle of causality was only the principle of identity applied to time, Identity and Reality is basically the demonstration of the dey role of causality in the physical sciences...".
