The Knowable

By Herbert Spencer

Book Overview

The Knowable is a philosophical work by Herbert Spencer, a prominent thinker and writer of the 19th century. In this book, Spencer explores the limits of human knowledge and the nature of reality, arguing that there are certain things that are unknowable to us. He discusses the role of science and philosophy in our understanding of the world, and examines various theories about the origin and nature of the universe. Spencer also considers the limitations of language and the implications of our inability to fully comprehend the world around us. The Knowable is a complex and thought-provoking work that challenges readers to question their assumptions about what can and cannot be known.THIS 450 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: First Principles of a New System of Philosophy, by Herbert Spencer.
