The Logical Foundations of Bradley’s Metaphysics

Abstract

This book is a major contribution to the study of the philosopher F. H. Bradley, the most influential member ofthe nineteenth-century school of British Idealists. It offers a sustained interpretation of Bradley’s Principles ofLogic, explaining the problem ofhow it is possi- ble for inferences to both be valid and have conclusions that contain new information. The author then describes how Bradley’s solution provides a basis for his metaphysical view that reality is one intercon- nected experience and how this gives rise to a new problem about truth
