The theories of knowledge, science, and existence are distinct, but they also have important areas of overlap and are closely intertwined.
This page first lists some examples of subject headings used in Orbis, and then some particular titles of interest (including online books). The specific resources are grouped under the following categories:
See also Psychology & Philosophy of Mind.
Although philosophers generally have a pretty good idea of the distinctions among various topics, unfortunately catalogers are not generally trained in these issues or provided with clear guidelines. In addition, more specific topics usually get their own subject heading, and are not listed as subheadings (see the cross-references listed under the "More Info" button). Consequently you may have to search several subjects to find what you want.
