The article focuses that origin and nature of knowledge of motion has become a question of the first importance for philosophers of all schools. According to a researcher, logic requires one to make movement the ultimate explanation of all things. From the standpoint of evolution, English philosopher Herbert Spencer argues that there is a direct and universal relation between quantity and heterogeneity of motion and the degree of development of nervous centers. As a microscope of time and space this method has achieved its most remarkable triumphs.
