Synopsis

This book introduces readers to the philosophical theory of Emergentism. It explores Emergentism’s many ramifications in areas of science, phenomenology, philosophy of mind, ethics and morality. The book further offers readers how Emergentism may be incorporated into daily life in very practical ways. The book's list of far-reaching ideas is extensive, but somehow none of the ideas presented is completely unfamiliar. The notions are simple and naturalistic. Here are two examples: •The evolution of life is a subset of the emergence of everything and the Scientific Method is a subset of the Emergent Method. •Disorder and movement is the default state of the universe that does not need explaining; order and apparent stability is a transient phenomenon that needs contingent explanation and provides temporal meaning and value. The book is directed towards all those who question life, science, philosophy, and themselves.
