Book Synopsis Lonergan and the Philosophy of Historical Existence by : Thomas J. McPartland
Book excerpt: Bernard Lonergan's ambitious study of human knowledge, based on his theory of consciousness, is among the major achievements of twentieth-century philosophy. He challenges the principles of contemporary intellectual culture by finding norms and standards not in external perceptions or reified concepts, but in the dynamism of consciousness itself.
