The Limits of Analysis

Download or read book The Limits of Analysis written by Stanley Rosen and published by Carthage Reprint. This book was released on 2000 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy in the twentieth century has been dominated by the urge for analysis, a methodology that is supposed to be comparable in clarity and correctness to scientific thought. In this brilliant and devastating attack on such exaggerated claims, Stanley Rosen demonstrates how analysis alone lacks the power to approach the deepest and most important philosophical questions. He thus provides us with a new and deeper understanding of the nature and limits of analytic thinking.
