About This Book

El texto plantea un examen de las cuestiones fundamentales de la filosofía, situando la certeza epistemológica como punto de partida. Argumenta que investigar los cimientos del conocimiento revela los límites y los riesgos de aceptar doctrinas erróneas, y que solo mediante estudios sólidos y dirigidos puede prevenirse la difusión de ideas falsas. Describe el repliegue introspectivo y el asombro ante los misterios del entendimiento, y defiende la renovación del esfuerzo filosófico para orientar y ensanchar la inteligencia humana.
