Philosophy: epistemology & theory of knowledge

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. Num Pages: 240 pages, 1 table. BIC Classification: HPK; HPL. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 159 x 236 x 15. Weight in Grams: 426.

Paperback. Much of what we know we cannot say. And much of what we do we cannot describe. For example, how do we know how to ride a bike when we can't explain how we do it?
