At the time, like much of the thinking today and the foundation of modern natural science, the predominant theories held that individual knowledge is limited to thinking that reflects objective, sensory perception. Steiner's view was eventually distilled in his Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts in 1924: \u003cblockquote\u003eThere are those who believe that, with the limits of knowledge derived from sensory perception, the limits of all insight are given. Yet if they would carefully observe how they become conscious of these limits, they would find in the very consciousness of the limits the faculties to transcend them. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e In this concise volume, Steiner lays out his argument for this view and, moreover, begins his explication of how one goes beyond thinking to the observation of thinking itself. \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGoethe's Theory of Knowledge\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for a deeper understanding of Rudolf Steiner's seminal work, \u003ci\u003eIntuitive Thinking as a Spiritual Path: A Philosophy of Freedom. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47115872731376,"sku":"9780880108218","price":1.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780880108218_p0.jpg?v=1763848278","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780880108218","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
