Summary

Explores the transformation humans undergo when they do metaphysics. Author Michael Gelven suggests that thinking metaphysically transforms us, and consequently the nature of metaphysics it self is transformational, Using concrete existential phenomena such as the learning process, how children mature into adults, and how fear can develop into courage, he establishes an understanding of metaphysical transformation.

Author Biography

Michael Gelven is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Northern Illinois University.
