Synopsis

"If anyone has doubts about the continuing validity of metaphysics as a philosophical concern this book ought to remove those doubts. Geoffrey Klempner has produced an essay in metaphysics which not only has great depth but also constitutes a vindication of the subject. Perhaps the most obvious forerunner is Aristotle in his conception of 'First Philosophy', although the reader may find echoes of other philosophers — Wittgenstein and perhaps Schopenhauer — especially in connection with the clash between first and third person views of the world, and the primacy of the agent in that regard. Fundamentally, however, the book and its argument are entirely those of the author. It is a work of very considerable originality, not easy perhaps but one of unmistakable importance and standing. Its argument and its conclusions deserve serious consideration by all those interested in the fundamentals of philosophy. The book is a first class contribution to the subject and the author's arguments demand the greatest respect. It is perhaps some time since such an impressive exercise in metaphysics has appeared on the scene, and anyone concerned with philosophy in its most abstract and profound aspects should welcome this book and find interest and stimulation in it." — Professor D.W. Hamlyn Geoffrey Klempner is Director of the Pathways School of Philosophy and founder member of the International Society for Philosophers.
