Experiential Realism (1973) is the outline of a new philosophical system. It is an attempt to discuss the major ingredients found in the context of comprehensive human experience. This approach to mankind and its environment is descriptive rather than speculative. Since it is based on all the major aspects of human experience, it avoids the restrictive (and sometimes doctrinaire) approach to a few specific problems – a fault which mars much contemporary philosophy. This book considers in detail words, meaning, mind, physical objects, concepts, knowledge and values. It makes use of the many sound insights reported by philosophers, ancient, modern and contemporary, and indeed there is considerable kinship with A.N. Whitehead’s insights. It also offers an evaluation of representative philosophers in the context of comprehensive experience – thus placing Experiential Realism in perspective.
