Appearance and Reality: A Metaphysical Essay is a book written by Francis Herbert Bradley and published in 1893. The book is a philosophical treatise that explores the nature of reality and the relationship between appearance and reality. Bradley argues that appearances are not always reliable indicators of reality, and that there is a fundamental disconnect between our perceptions of the world and the way it actually is.The book is divided into three parts. The first part examines the nature of appearance and reality, and argues that appearances are always dependent on our perceptions and are therefore not objective. The second part explores the relationship between appearance and reality, and argues that there is a fundamental disconnect between the two. The third part examines the implications of this disconnect, and argues that it has profound implications for our understanding of the world and our place in it.Throughout the book, Bradley draws on a wide range of philosophical and scientific sources, including the work of Immanuel Kant, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, and Charles Darwin. He also engages with contemporary debates in philosophy, including the debate between idealism and realism.Overall, Appearance and Reality: A Metaphysical Essay is a challenging and thought-provoking work that continues to be influential in contemporary philosophy. Its insights into the nature of reality and the relationship between appearance and reality continue to be relevant today, and it remains a key text for anyone interested in metaphysics or epistemology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
