The truth of the matter Roy Sturgess

What is truth? We promise to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But what is truth outside a courtroom, truth with a capital T? The ancient Greeks understood it as the route to human freedom, and even more - the way to live in harmony with resplendent reality. Roy Sturgess brings these ideas into the present day. They challenge our current obsession with selfhood. Building on his earlier book The Thinking Body he focuses on truth as the process that overcomes petty differences and reveals how easy it is to get on with other people. When we seek truth he suggests we start a process that brings home to us what true friendship means.
