Description
Most of us feel the uncertainty of our lives somewhat unnerving at times. In many ways we feel unanchored, and vulnerable to the winds of change. Uncertainty seems to affect the world around us at an economic, social, political, and even religious level. Stephen Toulmin, in his interesting book, Return to Reason?, calls on us to redress this feeling of uncertainty by going back to a healthier balance between rationality and reason as we struggle to better understand the world we live in.
