An internationally renowned philoso pher propounds a way to advance be yond appearance to ultimate realities and a final ideal. "One of philosophy's main functions is to arouse thought, to awaken and redirect. It asks others to think through, to assess, and at the same time to be flexible and steady. Author and reader must, despite the printed page, despite differences in age and experience, training and knowl edge, philosophize together," writes Paul Weiss in his brilliant new book. And this is exactly what the reader will find himself doing as the eminent speculative philosopher directs his attention to that which is beyond appearance--beyond daily living and, ultimately, beyond life itself. In this perhaps richest and finest of Mr. Weiss's books, the average reader who daily confronts the various aspects of our complicated lives will find an enlivening answer to persisting fundamental questions. Mr. Weiss's searching analysis of matter and his thought-provoking answers to questions raised provide a thoroughly enlightened examination of the realities of man's inalienable rights, his identity over the course of a changing career, and his possible immortality.
