520 |a The realities of mankind's cognitive situation are such that our knowledge of the world's ways is bound to be imperfect.

As the heart of the discussion is an examination of what Rescher identifies as the four prime reasons for the impracticability of cognitive access to certain facts about the world: developmental inpredictability, verificational surdity, ontological detail.
