The Philosophy of Truth: Exploring the Tension Between Reality and Belief

What is truth in a world full of noise? And what does it mean to live by it?

In this timely and thought-provoking continuation of The Philosophy of Reason, Sayed Hamid Fatimi explores one of the most fundamental—and most fragile—questions of human existence: What is truth, and how do we live in alignment with it?

Blending classical philosophy with modern insight, The Philosophy of Truth guides readers through a wide-ranging journey—across epistemology, language, relationships, society, and the self. From Plato and Gettier to Orwell and Foucault, from social media performance to the secret lies we tell ourselves, Fatimi reveals that truth is not just something we know—it is something we practice.

Clear without oversimplifying, reflective without losing structure, this book challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about certainty, perception, objectivity, and meaning. It invites those who are weary of curated realities and viral outrage to rediscover truth as a way of being—not a claim to possess, but a commitment to embody.

If The Philosophy of Reason asked how we think and why we believe, The Philosophy of Truth asks what lies behind those beliefs—and how to live honestly in a world full of illusion.

For readers of philosophy, psychology, and self-inquiry—this is not just a book to read, but one to return to.
