Closure A Story of Everything

"CLOSURE is in many ways admirable. Its range of reference is exhilarating, and its clarity and argumentative vigour refreshing; and it works hard to show that its claims about closure apply without paradox to the story of closure itself....Nevertheless, the story it tells is thoroughly unconvincing. The level of abstraction to which Lawson is forced in his treatment of science, politics, art and religion to reveal their underlying unity entrains the usual fate of those metaphysically inclined to see the One in the Many; the specificity of distinct domains is blurred."Lawson, Hilary is the author of 'Closure A Story of Everything' with ISBN 9780415136501 and ISBN 0415136504.
