Synopsis

This book is a fundamental reexamination of philosophical analysis and systems using principles from modern logic and science. It challenges the long-standing dominance of Aristotelian logic in philosophy, maintaining that it has limited philosophical inquiry. The author proposes non-Aristotelian logic and principles as a viable alternative, examining their implications for various philosophical positions, including Realism, Phenomenalism, and Idealism. The book highlights the importance of relations and events over substance and cause, arguing for a philosophy that recognizes the independence of entities and the reality of ideals and universals. By challenging traditional assumptions and offering a fresh perspective, this book provides valuable insights into the nature of philosophical inquiry and the search for truth.
