How did we begin to think about truth, and how did our methods change as knowledge grew? This book traces the long journey from ancient questions to modern science, showing how thinkers moved from asking what is right to how we can know it.
Within its chapters, you’ll follow the shift from philosophy to science, see how new methods sharpen our questions, and learn how thinkers connected mind, matter, and reality. It covers key moments and figures that reshaped thinking, from early methods of observation to the rise of induction and dialectic logic, and from religious debates to the birth of modern science.
Ideal for readers of philosophy, the history of science, or social science, this edition makes complex ideas accessible and relevant to everyday life.
