About the book

The Frontiers of Knowledge by A. C. Grayling is a non-fiction book. From the bestselling philosopher, a gripping history of science, thought, life on earth and the human mind - and what we might know in the future.

In very recent times humanity has learnt a vast amount about the universe, the past, and itself. But through our remarkable successes in acquiring knowledge we have learned how much we have yet to learn: the science we have, for example, addresses just 5 per cent of the universe; pre-history is still being revealed, with thousands of historical sites yet to be explored; and the new neurosciences of mind and brain are just beginning. What do we know, and how do we know it? What do we now know that we don't know? And what have we learnt about the obstacles to knowing more?
