Modeling Reality: A Practical Philosophy For Effective Living

by Alex Fink

In the course of the last centuries science has become perplexedly specialized and compartmentalized, general knowledge has all but disappeared, and philosophy has turned into impractical and unreadable prose. Author Alex Fink explores this slow but steady decline and traces its roots to an irrational and dangerous obsession with "truth". In this clear and easy-to-read pamphlet, he constructs an elegant framework to organize and apply useful knowledge. This framework is called Modelism, due to its use of models as the epistemological tool of choice. If you've ever found it hard to reconcile theory with practice you might be surprised how simple the answer really is.
