Forms of Truth and the Unity of Knowledge addresses a philosophical
subject-the nature of truth and knowledge-but treats it in a way
that draws on insights beyond the usual confines of modern
philosophy. This ambitious collection includes contributions from
established scholars in philosophy, theology, mathematics,
chemistry, biology, psychology, literary criticism, history, and
architecture. It represents an attempt to integrate the insights of
these disciplines and to help them probe their own basic
presuppositions and methods. The essays in Forms of Truth and the
Unity of Knowledge are collected into five parts, the first dealing
with division of knowledge into multiple disciplines in Western
intellectual history; the second with the foundational disciplines
of epistemology, logic, and mathematics; the third with explanation
in the natural sciences; the fourth with truth and understanding in
disciplines of the humanities; and the fifth with art and theology.

Cosmo, Michael Lykoudis, and Celia Deane-Drummond.
