""A Realistic Universe: An Introduction to Metaphysics"" is a philosophical book written by John Elof Boodin in 1916. The book explores the nature of reality and the fundamental principles of metaphysics. Boodin argues that reality is not just a product of our perceptions, but that it exists independently of our minds. He also discusses the relationship between mind and matter, the nature of causation, and the concept of free will. Boodin's approach to metaphysics is grounded in a realistic worldview, which he believes is essential to understanding the nature of reality. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to readers with little or no background in philosophy. It is a classic work in the field of metaphysics and is still widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
