Excerpt from Modes of Being Preceding the four chapters Of pivotal propositions and commen taries is an introductory essay which places the work in relation to what is being done in philosophy today, and offers a kind of auto biographical account of the way in which the four crucial ideas of the book developed. These chapters are followed by a section offer ing a brief formulation of some of the denials that could be made to what is here said.

In addition to summarizing and interrelating some of the major points made earlier, it discusses the basic problems which any system acknowledging a plurality of realities must face. At the very end, all the pivotal propo sitions are re-presented without comment, in order to provide an easy means of reference and to make it possible for the reader readily to envisage the intent of the entire work.
