Positivism in its original form was advocated by August Comte as a movement akin to empiricism and naturalism in the middle of the nineteenth century. But the positivism that we often refer to in our days originated rather in the phenomenology of Ernst Mach. According to his view, science should be based entirely on directly observable phenomena, and mathematics is a more useful way to describe them. Thus, the exclusive source of all authoritative knowledge resides in sensory appearances or sense data. His philosophy is, as is well known, succeeded by logical positivists, and becomes a standard view of scientific method. Positivism, as a form of empiricism, has strong tendency to identify what is present with what is, what exists. The most radical version of empiricism is expressed in the famous assertion of George Berkeley “esse is percipi (to be is to be perceived).”
