Metaphysics and the limits of science

Mary Midgley is often good value. And this article is certainly thought provoking, closing with:

Our problem here is to understand the relation between these two things – between our inner and outer life, between consciousness and its objects, between the vulnerable self and the world it has to deal with. This is not a physical problem. It is a problem about how to understand and face life as a whole. And it is not about to go away.
