<p>The Philosophy Of Reason is a complete reappraisal of the relationship between human reasoning and deductive logic. In "Thought, Rethought", a new paradigm of human consciousness, self-determination, and language is presented from a well-informed but non-doctrinaire perspective. Beginning with the startling and counter-intuitive results of a neurological experiment in the 1980s, and ending with a reassessment of the accepted scientific presumption that human compassion can be explained as an adaptive trait produced by biological evolution, this book succeeds in rethinking the nature and process of thinking. If dreams occur while you're asleep, how can you remember them? Is philosophical truth more like a blueprint, or a hologram? Is the proxy theory of mate selection conflicted? Are words in natural language really just empty symbols? Do critical thinking skills reward curiosity, or simply justify ignorance? These questions, and more, are all addressed in this groundbreaking new look at the process of cognition, which succeeds in uniting the approaches of moral religion and atheistic science like no previous theory of reasoning has before.</p>
