In the first part of the book he shows that the traditional distinction between primary and secondary qualities leads to idealism, while the common Cartesian conception of knowledge by way of ideas leads to skepticism. In an effort to avoid these twin scourges of modem philosophy, the author argues for the existence of ordinary perceptual objects and explains how we know these objects directly through simple acts of perception. The second part of the book is concerned with the way in which we know what is in our minds. Grossmann maintains that this kind of knowledge is just as fallible as perception. In the third part the author concludes that logic, arithmetic, and set theory concern matters of fact and that we discover these facts through empirical knowledge.08.32 epistemology(NL-LeOCL)077593413bclKennistheoriegttRealismfast(OCoLC)fst01091228Knowledge, Theory offast(OCoLC)fst00988194Empiricismfast(OCoLC)fst00908950RealismoembneEmpirismoembneRealismeEmpirismeTheorie de la connaissanceRealismEmpiricismKnowledge, Theory ofElectronic books. 08.32 epistemology.Kennistheorie.Realism.Knowledge, Theory of.Empiricism.Realismo.Empirismo.Realisme.Empirisme.Theorie de la connaissance.Realism.Empiricism.Knowledge, Theory of.Grossmann Reinhardt1931-540539MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910524854703321The Fourth Way2720960UNINA
