Truth and Error: Or The Science of Intellection is a philosophical treatise written by John Wesley Powell and originally published in 1898. The book explores the nature of truth and error, and the processes by which human beings come to know and understand the world around them. Powell argues that the human mind is capable of discerning truth through a process of rational inquiry, and that this process is essential for the advancement of knowledge and the betterment of society. He also explores the ways in which errors can arise in human thinking, and the importance of recognizing and correcting these errors in order to arrive at a more accurate understanding of reality. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of some of the most fundamental questions of human existence, and remains relevant and thought-provoking to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
