The aim of Thinking through Error: The Moving Target of Knowledge
is to describe knowledge as it works in our everyday attitude and
behavior. Often in life, when making decisions and choices, we do
not need to test the truth of our beliefs, so there must be another
way to guide ourselves. With this in mind, Antomarini presents
'thinking through error' instead of 'excluding error'. That is, we
act through a slow process of guess-work, followed by quick
gestures. By using our own uncertainty and our exploratory
abilities, we face unpredictable situations and at the same time we
acknowledge the constant presence of error in our thinking. Every
decision we make continuously determines and replaces an entire
universe within which that decision is plausible. Our everyday
knowledge is a balance between a feeling of the truth and its
negation.
