Abstract

The previous chapter ended with the keystone loop of acceptance, preference, and reasoning. This chapter is devoted to a theory of knowledge based on that loop within an evaluation system. The evaluation system is a system of acceptances and preferences including acceptances concerning preferences and preferences concerning acceptances. This evaluation system consisting of acceptances and preferences is the basis of knowledge and wisdom.
