520 |a Are morals a thing of the past? Does science permit personality? Can we justify religion in an age of agnosticism? Is totalitarianism inevitable? Eleven noted scholars and teachers of the sciences and humanities raise such issues in a series of original essays. This collaboration juxtaposes areas of interest traditionally at odds, emphasizing that the search for truth --of which symbol and myth are integral aspects-- is an endeavor of all the liberal arts. Truth has often been defined: each intellectual discipline presents its own interpretation. This book, with its variety of insights, illuminates the various facets of truth, myth, and symbol.
