In the twelve chapters that make up Satisfying Reason, Rescher develops and defends the following perspective:
- That rationality is a cardinal virtue in cognitive matters.
- That this is not something simple and cut-and-dried: in the pursuit of truth through the development of knowledge we face obstacles -- sometimes even insuperable ones.
- All that we can do is the best we can, realizing that even our very best may still be imperfect.
- Nevertheless, the venture is far from hopeless. While absolutes are unattainable in the cognitive venture, some solutions are situationally optimal, being comparatively the best that can be managed under the circumstances.
- That reason itself enables us to come to terms with this state of affairs, urging us to accept the best we can do as good enough.
