Great epistemic tools serve as maps which provide dictionaries to move between different worlds/perspectives. I.e. you have a set of rules where you can use an understanding of one thing to understand something else that is completely different from that thing.

I have a friend who says we know everything by analogy, "using an understanding of one thing to understand something else".
