description: The work of a brilliant polymath, Mach's Analysis was translated into English in 1914, and presents his extreme empiricism in lucid and persuasive form. The object of science, he writes, is just 'the connection of phenomena'; theories are likened to 'dry leaves which fall away' when they have ceased to be useful.
