Philosophy
Paperback. Philosophy long sought to set knowledge on a firm foundation, through derivation of indubitable truths by infallible rules.

It contends that metaphor, fiction, and exemplification often advance understanding in science and in art. Series: Princeton Paperbacks. Num Pages: 240 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HPK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 15. Weight in Grams: 371.
