Understanding Reality: Metaphysics in Epistemological Perspective
Lanham, Maryland: Lexington Books (2018)
Abstract
As a study in the methodology of metaphysics, the book seeks to show that ultimately Reality’s inherent impetus to lawful order serves also to account for its existence. It unfolds a train of thought to show that Reality both exists and has the nature it does for good reason, and specifically because this is somehow for the best.Author's Profile
