By reconstructing it and tracing its vicissitudes, David Conway
rehabilitates a time-honoured conception of philosophy, originating
in Plato and Aristotle, which makes theoretical wisdom its aim.
Wisdom is equated with possessing a demonstrably correct
understanding of why the world exists and has the broad character
it does. Adherents of this conception maintained the world to be
the demonstrable creation of a divine intelligence in whose
contemplation supreme human happiness resides. Their claims are
defended against various latter-day scepticisms.
