False Truths

The Error of Relying on Authority

Beschreibung

Mendler contends that many of the beliefs, tenets, conclusions, and understandings that are widely accepted as "truths" are, in fact, not valid at all. He asserts that we should challenge them all - from Plato on to contemporary theorists in all of those fields - and analyze every element of their conclusions.
