[edit] Axiology and Robert M. Pirsig
I wonder whether indeed Robert M. Pirsig introduced the term axiology to the general audience in his Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. The main topic of the book is perhaps axiology, that is the study of what is value, but I doubt that Pirsig actually uses the expression "axiology". Also, Pirsig's assumption that quality and value are the same is somewhat unorthodox, defying the common usage. --Dan 15:50, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
