Idealism and the Harmony of Thought and Reality
Do human beings have a special place in reality? Thomas Hofweber argues that we are special because there is an intimate connection between our human minds and reality itself. His form of idealism holds that our minds constrain, but do not construct, reality, which is the totality of facts, things taken to be completely independent of us.
