Abstract

The article focuses attention on the fact that the modern science is based not only on empirical data but also to a large extent on ideal conceptions. Necessity to reject the Cartesian way of thinking comes into existence. This lends a particular urgency to the consideration of modern scientific ideas, in particular the superpower of Davies, in connection with the metaphysical doctrine of Leibniz.
