| 释义 | natural philosophy (once / 6137 pages) n WORD FAMILY natural philosophy USAGE EXAMPLESThe process of science, you could make a reasonable claim, is actually natural philosophy. New York Times(Jun 17, 2016) He didn’t shy away from drawing conclusions that would make a mark on the world of natural philosophy. Salon(Jan 17, 2016) That day, an Irish physicist named John Tyndall, a professor of natural philosophy, delivered the annual Bakerian Lecture to the Royal Society in London.
