A book conceived and executed in the grand tradition of philosophical systematization, it integrates treatments of a wide array of fundamental philosophical problems within a grand overarching design. Examining key theories and theses from the Anglo-American analytic and the Continental European traditions, it both expounds and exemplifies a holistic vision of philosophy that can be appreciated by philosophers of both traditions alike.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e—Nicholas Rescher,University of Pittsburgh\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Through sustained critical engagement with the leading philosophical positions taken in the past century on both sides of the Atlantic, \u003ci\u003eStructure and Being \u003c\/i\u003eeffectively challenges current conventional wisdom by elaborating a formidable theoretical framework for a structural systematic philosophy—an ongoing, self-grounding yet nonfoundationalist attempt to determine the nature of beings as completely and comprehensively as possible.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e—Daniel Dahlstrom,Boston University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“\u003ci\u003eStructure and Being\u003c\/i\u003e is rich and challenging.

Its depth and breadth regarding issues of logic, epistemology, philosophy of language, and metaphysics are unparalleled, as is the ease with which the author moves between so-called analytic and continental positions. Both the overall project as a new comprehensive metaphysics and the particular arguments developed demand a serious response from philosophers today.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e—Hans-Herbert Koegler,University of North Florida\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface to \u003ci\u003eStruktur und Sein\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface to \u003ci\u003eStructure and Being\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey to Abbreviations and Logical\/Mathematical Symbols\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1.
