The Science Before Science: A Guide to Thinking in the 21st Century

Anthony Rizzi, Ph.D.

International Catholic University Classics Collection, recorded in 2003

Prof. Rizzi defends the notion that we know things about the world prior to doing science in the modern sense, and that this primary knowledge is the continuing presupposition of doing science or anything else. This course aims to place modern science in the wider context of human knowledge from which it can only escape by way of forgetfulness.
