The Unknowable

By Herbert Spencer

Book Overview

""The Unknowable"" by Herbert Spencer is a philosophical work that examines the limits of human knowledge and the nature of ultimate reality. Spencer argues that there are certain aspects of existence that are inherently beyond human comprehension, and that our attempts to understand them are ultimately futile. He explores the limitations of language and logic in our attempts to describe the unknowable, and suggests that we must rely on intuition and faith to approach these mysteries. Throughout the book, Spencer draws on examples from science, metaphysics, and philosophy to illustrate his points, and offers a thought-provoking critique of the limitations of human knowledge. ""The Unknowable"" is a challenging and thought-provoking work that will appeal to anyone interested in the nature of reality and the limits of human understanding.THIS 128 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: First Principles of a New System of Philosophy, by Herbert Spencer.
