Nathan Coppedge

Opis

Nathan Coppedge has been called 'a philosopher of this present age'. In this brief treatise, questions of knowledge are broached through the lens of twenty-four compound paradoxes. The fields covered by these writings are broad: theory, metaphysics, ethics, and systemology. Coppedge's thesis is that all problems reduce to essentialism and causality. Solutions are proposed to a line of paradoxes which lead to the paradox of essence and cause. Finally, a kind of solution to essence and cause is provided. Also included in the Second Edition are the first two sections of a work by the author called 'The Problems'. The first section includes 'Problems Encountered in Nathan Coppedge's Philosophy.' The second section of 'The Problems' applies to mathematical situations as well as problems in general. Also added to this edition is a description of Coppedge's general solution to all paradoxes, presented with its single exception.
