Replete with 67 maps of cities worldwide, charting the key urban centers of each continent from Athens to Wellington, the real success of this reference rests on 176 pages of world maps, providing detailed political and topographical information about every nation on Earth, enhanced by relief shading and layer-colored contours.

New high-speed rail links are now shown in France and South Korea as well as the full extent of the Trans-Siberian highway, completed in February 2004"--Jacket

Being known by
Christopher Peacocke(
)
7 editions published between 1999 and 2004 in English and held by 1,629 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Being Known is a response to a philosophical challenge which arises for every area of thought. The challenge is one of reconciling our conception of truth in an area with the means by which we think we come to know truth about that area. Meeting the challenge may require a revision of our conception of truth in that area, or a revision of our theory of knowledge for that area, or a revision in our conception of the relations between the two. Christopher Peacocke presents a framework for addressing the challenge, a framework that links both the theory of knowledge and the theory of truth with the theory of concept-possession
