Distinction And The Criticism Of Beliefs

By Alfred Sidgwick

Book Overview

""Distinction and the Criticism of Beliefs"" is a philosophical work written by Alfred Sidgwick. The book explores the concept of distinction and its role in the criticism of beliefs. Sidgwick argues that distinction is essential to the process of critically examining beliefs and determining their validity. He explores various forms of distinction, such as the distinction between appearance and reality, the distinction between subjective and objective judgments, and the distinction between empirical and rational beliefs. Sidgwick also examines the relationship between distinction and skepticism, arguing that while skepticism can be a valuable tool for critical thinking, it should not be taken to the extreme of doubting all beliefs. Overall, ""Distinction and the Criticism of Beliefs"" offers a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of belief and the importance of critical thinking in evaluating our beliefs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
