"World hypotheses" correspond to metaphysical systems, and they may
be systematically judged by the canons of evidence and
corroboration.
In setting forth his root-metaphor theory and examining six such
hypotheses--animism, mysticism, formism, mechanism, contextualism,
and organicism--Pepper surveys the whole field of metaphysics.
Because this book is an analytical study, it stresses issues rather
than men. It seeks to exhibit the sources of these issues and to
show that some are unnecessary; that the rest gather into clusters
and are interconnected in systems corresponding closely to the
traditional schools of philosophy. The virtue of the root-metaphor
method is that it puts metaphysics on a purely factual basis and
pushes philosophical issues back to the interpretation of
evidence.
This book was written primarily as a contribution to the field, but
its plan excellently suits it for use as a text in courses in
metaphysics, types of philosophical theory, or present tendencies
in philosophy.
