Mathematical Metaphysics Revisited

INTRODUCTION In these early years of the new millennium, there has been considerable academic concern over the stubbornness of Cartesian dualism and the conceptual difficulty of uniting the mental and physical sides of reality. Meanwhile, it has gone all but unnoticed in academic circles that the formal aspect of this challenge was met decades COSMOS AND HISTORY 314 ago, and in the most effective possible way. This paper contains a brief introductory account of the work in question, including a highly simplified description of the logicomathematical reasoning needed for the proper high-level theoretical description of reality. Everything follows from the requirements of this objective. Aside from the author's own writings, there is as yet no well-defined field of mathematical metaphysics. Being an explanation of the author's previous work, this paper is largely an exercise in self-reference. The same applies to its bibliography. Conveniently enough, this is well in accord with a major theme herein emphasized, namely, the self-referential nature of reality.

In other words, this paper introduces the mathematics that unites the mental and physical sides of reality, thus dissolving the infamous Cartesian dualism by proposing that reality is in fact not split at the highest level in which a mind distributes over the universe and responds to the individual's thought-generation. Using light.
