Summary: Encountering reality argues for a new appreciation of T.F. Torrance on epistemology and reality. Torrance emphasizes the distinction between truth and truthfulness, reorienting the discussion from a focus on statements to being. This shift challenges the dichotomy between correspondence and coherence theories of truth.
