"From the time of Socrates, doubt has been one of the philosopher's keenest implements in dissecting the cosmos, the self, and the sacred. With the expansion of philosophy curricula in the American public school system, the genie escaped its bottle, and doubt began to be carelessly applied to an unheard of range of everyday problems. Casting 'a shodow of doubt over a subject constituted disproof. The very weapon Descartes used to prove the existence of God became, ironically, a means of puncturing faith. Crisis ensued. Clearly, a new understanding of doubt is crucial to human progress..."
So began Dr. Dave in the introduction of his "Complete Cyclopedia of Systematic Doubt." This little known work has come to be viewed as the most far reaching reassessment of human reason since the industrial revolution. The Cyclopedia's success rests on its elliptical index, which recognizes and embraces the fundamentally nonlinear and mercurial nature of human thought. Over 1, 130 types of doubt are identified and carefully cross indexed.
Originally in 16 volumes, this accessbile new Pocket Cyclopedia desrves a place on every reference shelf.
