This, however, is not the clear-cut resolution it may seem to be, for the author now contends that scepticism in epistemology should yield to metaphysical perplexity, his arguments being such as to bring into play the underdetermination of belief by evidence, the role of necessary conditions within a system, and the nature of the conscious mind. This latter is exhibited as the surface of an ocean in which the non-conscious, on the author's definition of the term, conceals an inaccessible realm: that of the intentional. Peddle's theory of consciousness is perhaps the most startling aspect of the present work, related as it is to his theory of the limits of knowledge, beyond which is mystery. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurence Peddle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1838428917\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781838428914\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambria Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.69d","brand":"Laurence Peddle","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153847398655,"sku":"9781838428914","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0a30a2be-bcbd-46a0-bbb6-b0a6652d26a4.jpg?v=1770786230","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mystery-beyond-knowledge-laurence-peddle-9781838428914","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
