The Nature Of Metaphysical Thinking by Dorothy Emmet
A reflective examination of what distinguishes metaphysical from scientific thought, arguing that metaphysical inquiry aims not at empirical explanation but at an integrative conceptual understanding of being, value, and the coherence of experience; it surveys historical approaches, addresses common misconceptions, and defends metaphysics as a disciplined, necessary form of reflection that uses careful conceptual analysis, attention to language and symbol, and a balance of experience and reason to make sense of ultimate questions and the unity of knowledge.
