About this episode

In judging the theories that are put forward, in a book or otherwise the reader must identify the identity of, or the discrepancy between, his own basic principles or assumptions and those of the person who puts forward the theory. For example, if you don’t share Karl Marx’s fervor about Economic Justice, his economic doctrine and the reforms it suggests are likely to seem to you practically false or irrelevant. Hence we as knowledge seekers or the dumping sites of all information have to ask – One, what the author’s objectives are and – Two, what means he is employing to achieving the objective.
