Conceived on a numerically cyclical basis, this 1997 work enlarges on the scope and content of previous works in the genre by John O’Loughlin, as we are made aware of the extent to which Social Transcendentalism is both ideological and philosophical, that is to say, practical and theoretical, serving not merely as a vehicle for metaphysical truth, but also, and no less significantly, as a catalyst for the possibility of radical social change. In short, this work is a significant milestone on the road of Mr O’Loughlin’s evolution as both a self-made philosopher and a Social Transcendentalist, which signals the way towards the more comprehensively exacting and definitive works to come. – A Centretruths editorial.
