A World of Synthesized Utility And The Seven Solitudes (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798869003966)

What has always been most perplexing to me about previous philosophers is their will to align this world with infinitude. They assign totality to everything and kill it in the same breath. Therefore, I deem the strata of ultimate perpetuation the strongest philosophical foundation-my utility," thought Andrew Fisk. These two works, A World of Synthesized Utility and The Seven Solitudes, posit that everything in this world has stood on its head. A World of Synthesized Utility presents Fisk's take on metaphysics that posits man as entirely consumed within the natural ebb and flow of the cosmos. He examines questions such as the nature of ideality, the existence of God, the burdens of freedom and their epistemological foundations using the critical and paradigmatic eye of utility, his notion that existence is a simple manifestation of potential and actual infinitude. Formulaic on paper while greatly applicable in practice, it attempts the reversal of virtually endless values and sets the scene for The Seven Solitudes. Featuring immense rhetoric, full scale attacks on democracy, liberty, and ideality, and introducing a new line of characters he believes ought to make their presence in this world soon, it supplements AWOSU effectively in that it offers prescriptive methods for controlling one's utility. A glowing, adventurous stance on metaphysics, any reader or student of philosophy, theology, and even the natural sciences will find these pieces essential.
