Attempts at Truth is a philosophical work written by St. George Stock and first published in 1882. The book is a collection of essays and lectures that explore various topics related to the pursuit of truth, including the nature of knowledge, the limits of human understanding, and the role of reason in our search for truth. Stock draws on a wide range of philosophical traditions, including ancient Greek philosophy, medieval scholasticism, and modern empiricism, to offer his own insights into these timeless questions. Throughout the book, Stock emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and intellectual honesty in our quest for truth, and he encourages readers to approach these complex issues with an open mind and a willingness to challenge their own assumptions. Despite its age, Attempts at Truth remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the ongoing quest for knowledge and understanding.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
