Riddles Of Existence by Earl Conee

A Guided Tour of Ten Great Mysteries

A clear, accessible tour of central metaphysical puzzles that explains and evaluates competing views about what exists and why: the nature of properties and universals, the difference between existence and possibility, the reality of time and persistence, questions of identity and personal survival, causation and laws, and the idea of a necessary or divine being. Through careful exposition and critical discussion, the book aims to make difficult abstract debates intelligible to non-specialists while highlighting their philosophical stakes and unresolved tensions.
