Truth. A History and a Guide for the Perplexed By Felipe Fernandez-Armesto
1999 | 274 Pages | ISBN: 0312274947 | PDF | 4 MB


Written by a renowned Oxford historian, this fascinating volume presents a global history of truth. Sharp and authoritative, Truth manages to touch every period of human experience; it leaps from truth-telling technologies of "primitive" societies to the private mental worlds of great philosophers; from spiritualism to science and from New York to New Guinea. In clear, lucid prose, this little book takes on an enormous subject and makes it understandable to anyone.
