Metaphysicists believe that essence and existence are neither inherently linked nor absolutely separated. This book discusses the development of the doctrine of being in the West; St. Thomas Aquinas; existence as a path toward God and toward a metaphysics of the future, among other topics. This work involves a number of philosophical paradoxes. Wilhelmsen rejects the notion that faith and reason are incompatible or contradictory and argues for their essential harmony.
