Georges Canguilhem Quotes

In Truth, One Cannot, It Seems, Oppose Mechanism And Finalism, One Cannot Oppose Mechanism And Anthropomorphism, For If The Functioning Of A Machine Is Explained By Relations Of Pure Causality, The Construction Of A Machine Can Be Understood Neither Without Purpose Nor Without Man. A Machine Is Made By Man And For Man, With A View Toward Certain Ends To Be Obtained, In The Form Of Effects To Be Produced ... A Mechanical Model Of Any Phenomena Is Explanatory Only So Long As We Take Machines As Already Granted.
