This title was first published in 2002. Knowing God presents an
innovative analysis of one of the most difficult and intractable
philosophical questions of the past 350 years: the problem of
knowledge, and specifically knowledge of God and the transcendental
principles of value. This book situates the problem within the
context of current social and political struggles, as well as
within the contemporary search for meaning and value. Mansueto
revisits ancient debates regarding the agent intellect, intentional
being, and connatural knowledge, while drawing on recent
discussions in neuropsychology (Luria and Damasio), cognitive
development theory (Piaget and Luria), and the sociology of
knowledge or "ideological criticism" (especially Durkheim, Lukacs,
and Gramsci). Including a chapter on forms of religious knowledge
and concluding with a 'guide for the perplexed' intended to help
overcome nihilism and despair, Knowing God reconciles
epistemological and metaphysical realism with a recognition of the
role of social structure in shaping knowledge.
