John O’Loughlin first got the idea of writing a collection of dialogues in 1978 from reading the eighteenth-century French philosopher Diderot, one of the great masters of the genre, and the result, several weeks later, was that he had written four fairly lengthy philosophical dialogues, which enabled him to continue developing the dualistic theories begun the previous year (1977) and included in both Between Truth and Illusion (which contains his first ever philosophical dialogue) and The Illusory Truth. The subject-matter of these more thematically-advanced dialogues ranges from book collecting as an art and the morality of films, to the influence of astrology on writers and retrospective perspectives on history, including recent history, and although they tend, on the basis of didactic disquisition rather than mere conversation, to be a touch one-sided, they are at least broad enough to be of some interest to the general reader. - A Centretruths editorial.
