Book Synopsis
This collection of essays by James Bradley (1947-2012) showcases his unique vision: a speculative cosmology of the Trinity, drawing on the vast history of Western philosophy.

Trade Review
"In the standard analytic historiography, philosophy was transformed in the 17th century from the handmaiden of theology into the handmaiden of the natural sciences. Bradley challenges this pervasive narrative by exploring the persisting theological dimension, especially the ontological trinitarian structures, of much modern metaphysics, and boldly defends the contemporary relevance of philosophical Idealism. These are learned, brilliant and provocative essays that illuminate the thought of an unjustly neglected British Canadian philosopher." -Douglas Hedley, University of Cambridge
