Summary

This quote suggests that Galilean science, rooted in its own unique understanding of the world, is limited by the specific context in which it emerged. It argues that Galilean science is unable to go beyond this context or transcend its own limitations. The concepts and knowledge generated within Galilean science are thereby confined to the experiential framework and the ends defined by the reality from which they emerged. In other words, Galilean science is shaped by its specific worldview and cannot fully transcend or encompass a broader understanding of the world.
