# Theory of Objectivity > An organized reference to principles, applications, and source material. ## Posts - [Put Author Context Beside the Sources](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/put-author-context-beside-the-sources/): Biographical context can orient a reader, but it cannot replace an explanation of the ideas. Keep the author’s trajectory and the publication record easy to verify. - [Apply a Theory Without Overstating It](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/apply-a-theory-without-overstating-it/): An application is an interpretation, not automatic proof of a theory. A careful account shows where the principle ends and the example begins. - [Read the Principles Before the Examples](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/read-the-principles-before-the-examples/): An example can make an idea feel familiar before its meaning is clear. Start with the stated principles, then use examples to test your understanding. ## Pages - [Contact](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/contact/) - [FAQ](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/faq/) - [Blog](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/blog/) - [Author](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/author/) - [Theory](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/theory/) - [Home](https://theoryofobjectivity.com/) [comment]: # (Generated by Hostinger Tools Plugin)
