Abstract (2. Language): 
The famous French philosopher and historian of science Emile Meyerson (1859-1933) was born in Poland and educated as a scientist in chemistry, who mainly wrote on philosophy of science, history of science and general epistemology. His main interest is the nature of thought as illustrated in its successful outcomes. As such, an analysis of the history of science would serve Meyerson’s object for understanding reason and its works. Meyerson asserts that the history of science apprehended some of the finest examples of the powers and behaviours of human reason at work. He states that it must be recalled that an inquiry or a study is always governed by preconceived ideas, to wit, by assumptions, theories and hypotheses, which are essential to lead our progress. Hence, we are never completely free of them.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Ünlü Fransız filozof ve bilim tarihçisi Emile Meyerson (1859-1933) Polonya’da doğmuş ve kimya eğitimi almıştır; esas olarak bilim felsefesi, bilim tarihi ve genel epistemoloji üzerine yaptığı çalışmalarla unlenmistir. Meyerson’un ana ilgisini başarılı sonuçlarının sergilendiği düşüncenin doğası oluşturur. Bu bağlamda, bir bilim tarihi çözümlemesi Meyerson’un aklı ve aklın eserlerini anlama gayesine hizmet edecektir. Meyerson’a göre, bilim tarihi insan aklının yetki ve davranışlarının en güzel örneklerini sergilemektedir. Meyerson için bir araştırma veya yapılan bir çalışmada her zaman peşin hükümler, eş deyişle, kabuller, kuramlar ve varsayımlar egemendir ve bunlar ilerlememizin olmazsa olmazlarıdır; bu nedenle, peşin hükümlerden asla tamamen azade değiliz.
