Philosophy: epistemology & theory of knowledge
Paperback. Launches an all-out attack on what it calls "phenomenalism," the idea that our knowledge of the world rests on a perceptual or experiential foundation. This book states that the wider-than-normal usage of the term "phenomenalism" is to call attention to important continuities of thought between theories often thought to be competitors.

Paperback. Any sound practical philosophy must be clear on practical concepts - concepts, in particular, of life, action, and practice. This work considers life, action, and practice successively, attempting to exhibit these interrelated concepts as pure categories of thought, and to show how a proper exposition of them must be Aristotelian in character.
