Paper Back. Etat : New. Forgive us, but we're initially overwhelmed by the sheer massiveness of this book: exclude the fourteen-page table of contents, the twenty-seven pages of editors' introductory material, and the hundred pages of notes and index, and you're still left with 770 pages of the purest sort of philosophical construction, an attempt (by one who must be the twentieth-century Aquinas) to provide ''the basis of verifiable metaphysics.'' Drawing on thinkers as separated in centuries as Euclid, Plato, Kant and J.H. Newman, Lonergan wrote Insight as an epistemology applicable to biological science, political science, psychotherapy, metaphysics, and ethics, drawing near the outskirts of theology by analogy (for a fine outline of Lonergan's project, see Hugo Meynell's essay in David Ford's Modern Theologians). A careful thinker, faithful to Christian tradition yet always surveying the range of modern thought and concerned that scientific, philosophical and theological investigations share common assumptions, Lonergan produced a body of work not only of bulk, but of clarity and a tenacious focus on fundamentals. His model of cross-disciplinary pursuit of knowledge, his concern to overcome its fragmentation, cannot be bypassed by serious theologians and philosophers.
