The methodology of concomitant variations

When applied to life the experimental method shows noteworthy limitations. It can study only cause and effect relations and needs quantitative data. These requirements have confined life sciences to a materialistic approach. In 1843, John Stuart Mill described the methodology of concomitant variations, which provides an alternative to the experimental method.The aim of this book is to offer a critical description of the experimental methodology, introduce the methodology of concomitant variations and provide a software, for free download, which makes this methodology readily available.
