Abstract

This work exposes the need of epistemology in the development and humanization of man. Humanization and establishing a good ground for improvement of man is a necessity towards the empowerment of human species above other living being, let alone lower animals and a necessary end of any man in the world. It will shock us that in the absence of the power of reason, men are mentally equally to these lower animals, in such way, we compete with them with the little things which they grabble with. Therefore, there is need for the improvement of man. This work will expose the meaning of the terms decipherable in answering the begging questions in the above topic, the way through which we can achieve humanization of man. Using its basic tool as Epistemology, the work expounded to a reasonable length the meaning of epistemology and its application (epistemic). It will also go as far as opening our eyes to seeing the possible means through which man can help in the humanization process. There are also some effects of the humanization of man to man, which may include the valuation of human person, selfconsciousness, equality and justice etcetera. The work will not have attained its valued endpoint without touching on the implications of epistemology to the humanization of human person.
