Description: Lawson provides a comprehensive look at the history of western thought, the evolution of science and its attempts to provide us with a "theory of everything" and an evaluation of the relativist multiple truths. He discusses why this scientific mind-set no longer works and why relativist truths are no longer sustainable. Through a dazzling use of examples, including science, mathematics, art and religion, Closure offers a way out of this maze. Hilary Lawson shows that a single process can be regarded as underlying the whole of human experience. A process that can account for the character of perception, language, and our understanding of the world. This process is the process of closure.
