The Birth & Dissection of Metaphysics

In this public domain eBook, Lithner embarks on a short intellectual journey that traces the origins of metaphysics from its birth in ancient Greece all the way up to modern-day. This ebook provides a incisive analysis of the most influential metaphysical theories, unraveling the ideas created by philosophical giants such as Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, Descartes, and Kant. Lithner meticulously debunks each philosopher's take on metaphysics, exposing the limitations and contradictions within their frameworks. Through a examination, the book reveals how the advent of scientific inquiry has progressively dismantled the core tenets of metaphysical thought, rendering much of it obsolete in the face of empirical evidence and logical scrutiny.
