Radical Philosophy

I did some preparatory work for a subject index today, beginning with my book's front matter. The philosopher Dr. Martin Cohen writes the Foreword, which reads:

"This, then, is the heart of the book—to find not more evidence of the contradictions and conflicts but rather the beginnings of solutions and resolutions. ... Everything Briefly is a radical effort to revisit the great philosophical questions from a different perspective."

OBSERVATION: The meaning of "radical" is "affecting the fundamental nature of something". It is true, too, that I seek to synthesise older philosophies, not overturn them.
