Self, System and the Non-Conscious: The Further Metaphysics of Meaning and Mystery Laurence Peddle

Laurence Peddle is unusual - I should rather say unique - in combining the keenest analytical intelligence with a poet's sense of what remains mysterious once analysis has done its necessary work. His writing is also remarkable for the qualities of wit and humour that constantly remarkable for the qualities of wit and humour that constantly enliven - and subtly inform - its philosophical concerns.

System, mystery, and the non-conscious - nobody has brought these dimensions of enquiry into anything like so powerfully suggestive an argument. Read carefully, it will change and deepen your thinking about many of the most pressing issues in present-day debate.
