Synopsis

This is the seventh book in a co-authored series of experiments applying Lonergan's fourth functional specialty to contemporary issues. The primary purpose is to exemplify how scholars might evade intellectual impasses and premature halting points in their inquiries. The last two chapters fantasize about five centuries from now when many of the conventional academic expectations criticized in this book will be distant memories. Such a fantasy is one way of gaining some critical distance from the variable common sense and popular beliefs of the present.
