It can be said perhaps that in our time, philosophy does not enjoy any special favor and
liking…But this much may be assumed without hesitation as correct, that the Philosophy of
Nature in particular is in considerable disfavor…It can be said that in the first satisfaction afforded by its discovery, this idea met with crude treatment at unskilled hands, instead of being cultivated by thinking reason; and it has been brought low not so much by its opponents as by its friends.
