The Human Endeavor

What is the goal of one's life? What goals should the human race pursue? Does History have a greater meaning? Does the universe as a whole have any directionality? What is knowledge and can we really know anything for certain? Is there a "real world out there" or are humans just making it all up? Why are technology and the arts seemingly taking over the world today? These are some of the big perennial questions philosophers have developed over the centuries, here explained in a clear new logical way. It is partly based on the ancient 7 Liberal Arts model for a complete education, but it is updated to include the modern hard and soft Sciences and Humanities. It is also partly based on the work of America's greatest philosopher, Charles Sanders Peirce, inventor of Pragmatism, Semiotics and Synechism (the theory that all things are connected). The biggest question the book wants to pursue is one of Aesthetics, namely: what is most admirable in the world. This unique book is meant for anyone wishing to go to college who wants to know all about the content of a Bachelor's Degree beforehand, for anyone in college who wants to know how all the courses and fields of study fit together, or anyone who has been and wants a refresher course for the whole degree in one book. This is also a challenge for others to come up with a better ideal of what the human race needs most of all in its model of universal education. This book is an outline of all knowledge. With two posters and 21 illustrations.
