About this ebook
An aphoristic philosophy project by John O'Loughlin deriving from a collection of weblogs which have since been extensively revised and reformatted for eBook publication in the interests of enhanced understanding through a more uniformly stylistic and chronological presentation, this title continues in the vein of the author's metaphysical approach to philosophy with fresh insights into truth and the intellectual quest to establish metaphysical certitude. The cover, incidentally, shows the entrace to Galway University's quadrangle and was taken by the author himself whilst visiting his native city.
