Forced into premature publication, The Blake-Feyerabend Hypothesis created controversy from the moment it became known to the world.At the centre of this philosophical work is the Cartesian Quandary: a riddle about God and knowledge. For Descartes had argued that while man believed in God, man could believe that God had endowed man with the reason to understand the universe. However, Descartes also claimed that the less power and intelligence one ascribed to their Maker, the less reason they had to trust their own rationale minds, for if God did not exist, then how could man believe that he had been endowed with reason to understand the universe? Indeed, if man’s reason, itself, was a mere byproduct of evolutionary processes as Darwin argued it was, how could man know that those evolutionary processes favoured truth as a final end product, or that man was the last stage in a truth-evolving intellect? The rediscovery of the Cartesian Quandary sent Dr. Hoswell on a quest to the outermost limits of reason and philosophy, through such luminaries as Charles Darwin, David Hume, John Locke, Richard Rorty, Wilfrid Sellars, Paul Feyerabend and William Blake to find an answer to Descartes’ Quandary. This re-publication contains an expanded and updated introduction along with material that was cut from the original due to word length.Read it if you dare!
