Philosophical Shifts in Concepts of Truth Over Twenty Centuries
Coetzee gives an overview of the history of man's search for truth. He begins with the original Greek understandings of philosophy, science, and wisdom, opinion, theory, knowledge, and truth. He follows that by a record of role and conceptual shifts in philosophy, science, and religion up to the end of the nineteenth century. The dramatic and fundamental twentieth century philosophical and scientific conceptual changes and their implications are highlighted in the second section.
