Synthetic philosophy

Synthetic philosophy is an approach that seeks to integrate various areas of knowledge—like science, ethics, and metaphysics—into a cohesive understanding of reality. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of different fields and uses insights from each to develop a comprehensive worldview. This philosophy often combines empirical evidence with rational thought to address fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, and morality. Prominent figures, such as philosopher Herbert Spencer, advocated for this method, suggesting that understanding the complexity of life requires synthesizing information from diverse disciplines rather than viewing them in isolation.
