Book excerpt: ---Not a prolegomena, a foundation.--- More descriptive than a manifesto, and deeply pioneering in its formality, this manual uses a diagrammatic method to express new theories and foundations in thought. In place of circular reasoning, it offers recursive proofs; in place of insolvability, it offers exclusive contexts; in place of linguistic deconstruction, it offers categorical deductions. It includes over three-hundred pages of interrelated methods, arguments, and tools, which promise to assist the philosopher in making logical, ethical, and systematic claims. This first published volume of the dimensional encyclopedia is something more than an encyclopedia. Its a guide to genuine philosophy.
