Zustand: very good. Albany: SUNY,1990. Paperback. 401p. - Essays on the work of Justus Buchler (1914-1991), an original American philosopher whose powerful, systematic categorial thinking does not fit easily into any of the usual classifications of philosophical schools. While maintaining a commitment to the philosophical tradition's aim at the utmost lucidity and generality, Buchler was a thoroughgoing critic of all versions of what he called 'ontological priority, ' the view that some things or characteristics are more real or more metaphysically fundamental than others. His ordinal metaphysics is perhaps the most rigorous instance of an attempt to think philosophically without adopting some version of the doctrine of ontological priority. In abandoning that view Buchler can be compared with certain strains in American pragmatism or in continental critics of traditional metaphysics such as Heidegger and Derrida; and yet he did not abandon the metaphysical enterprise itself but sought to elaborate new categories of truly general scope. This book represents the most comprehensive and many-sided exploration of Buchler's ordinal metaphysics and its extensions. The authors maintain a high level of philosophical discourse in articulating and sometimes criticizing Buchler's conception of philosophy and metaphysics. Not only are there chapters addressing such central philosophical concepts as materialism, possibility, identity, and the categorial in the light of Buchler's thought, but there are intriguing re-evaluations of such widely diverse philosophies as those of Aristotle, Whitehead, Buddhism, and Richard Rorty from a Buchlerian standpoint. The implications of Buchler's thought for understanding art, community, theology, and even the interpretation of dreams are developed and critically assessed. The volume will be indispensable for students of Buchler and American philosophy and it should be of the greatest interest to anyone seeking a fresh perspective on the thinkers and the problems it treats.
