Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Why is there something rather than nothing This question-older than science, deeper than theology-has haunted human thought for centuries. Most traditions set it aside, reframing or ignoring it as too strange to be held for long. Before Being refuses that evasion.Beginning from the stark premise of absolute nothingness-the absence of space, time, law, or potential-the book considers two radically different paths by which being might arise. The first asks whether existence could emerge on its own, without cause or design, as the collapse of absence into presence. The second asks whether being was given-willed by an intention beyond the very structures it made possible.From these two starting points, the inquiry expands into the great domains of metaphysics, science, and human meaning. Can order arise without prior law Can mathematics or logic emerge without foundations Could consciousness appear from structure alone, or is it irreducible If being was chosen, why is the source hidden What does such hiddenness mean for freedom, suffering, and the possibility of love Moving between philosophy, cosmology, and theology, the book traces a disciplined meditation on existence itself. It explores theories of emergence, the instability of nothingness, the possibility of metaphysical intention, and the human condition shaped by time, mortality, and memory. The inquiry does not claim resolution. Instead, it asks what it means to live in a world that does not declare its origin, where meaning must be discovered, constructed, or chosen.Written for intelligent general readers, Before Being bridges metaphysical rigor with human reflection. It offers no easy answers, but instead an invitation: to face the mystery of existence without retreat, and to consider what it might mean to live in the light of a world that explains neither itself nor us, yet asks for our attention, response, and care.…
