Welcome to the APHORISTIC PHILOSOPHY of
MAXIMUM TRUTH

which follow the brief introduction below:-
If the essayistic
aphorisms and aphoristic notes of The Omega Octet, my eight volumes of
‘supernotes’ (available on the Internet in a variety of permutations, including
two quartets), are of indeterminate length, then what follows here, dating from
1993, is of an aphoristic purism which allows for little or no deviation from
the basic form. One could say that I had
passed through the heavy darkness into the full light(ness) of Truth at this
point, and the result is a vindication not only of the aforementioned octet,
but of my entire philosophical quest to-date.
Comprised of 707 maxims which have been given 'a/b' subdivisions, Maximum
Truth succeeds in achieving, albeit on a still-far from definitive basis,
the sort of metaphysical comprehensiveness I had been struggling towards all
along. One could say that it signifies a
refinement upon the essayistic aphorisms and aphoristic notes of The Omega
Octet; though the tendency to recycle ideas, by now a veritable principle
of my work, persists here to even greater effect, insofar as it was this
technique which made the attainment of what is in some respects a maximum
degree of truth possible. – John O’Loughlin.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
John James O’Loughlin was born in Salthill, Galway, the Republic of Ireland, of mixed Irish- and British-born parents in 1952. Following a parental split due to ethnic and other incompatibilities (they called her 'Mary Aldershot'), he was
brought to England by his mother and grandmother (who had initially returned to
Ireland with intent to stay following the death of her British-based husband) in the mid-50s and subsequently attended schools
in Aldershot, Oakham, and, following the death and repatriation of his grandmother,
Carshalton Beeches, Surrey, where, despite an enforced change of denomination
from Catholic to Protestant in consequence of having been put into care by his mother, he attended a state school. Graduating in 1970 with an
assortment of CSE’s (Certificate of Secondary Education)
and GCE’s (General Certificate of Education),
including history and music, he moved the comparatively short distance up to London and went on, via two
short-lived jobs, to work at the Royal Schools of Music in Bedford Square,
where he eventually became responsible for booking examination venues. After a brief flirtation with Redhill
Technical College back in Surrey, he returned to his former job in the West End
but retired from the ABRSM in 1976 due to a combination of factors, including
ill-health, and proceeded to dedicate himself to a literary vocation which, despite a brief
spell as a computer tutor at Hornsey YMCA in the late '80s and early '90s, he
has effectively continued with ever since. His novels include Changing Worlds (1976),
Cross-Purposes (1979), Thwarted Ambitions (1980), Sublimated Relations
(1981), and Deceptive Motives (1982). From the mid-80s Mr O'Loughlin dedicated himself exclusively to philosophy, his
true literary vocation, and has penned more than sixty titles of a
philosophical nature, including Devil and God – The Omega Book (1985-6), Towards
the Supernoumenon (1987), Elemental Spectra (1988-9),
and Philosophical Truth (1991-2). John O’Loughlin
is a bachelor who lives alone in Hornsey, north London.
