About this listen

First proposed more than 200 years ago, Schopenhauer's extraordinarily prescient metaphysics - if understood along the lines thoroughly elucidated and substantiated in this volume - offer powerful answers not only to the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, but also to modern philosophical dilemmas such as the hard problem of consciousness - which plagues mainstream physicalism - and the subject combination problem - which plagues constitutive panpsychism. This invaluable treasure of the Western philosophical canon has eluded us so far because Schopenhauer's argument has been consistently misunderstood and misrepresented, even at the hands of presumed experts. Hoping to change this situation, Decoding Schopenhauer's Metaphysics offers a conceptual framework, a decoding key for unlocking the sense of Schopenhauer's metaphysical contentions in a way that renders them mutually consistent. With this key in mind, even those who earlier dismissed Schopenhauer's metaphysics should be able to return to it with fresh eyes and at last grasp its meaning. And for those as yet unacquainted with Schopenhauerian thought, this volume offers a succinct and accessible entry path.

Best Analysis of Schopenhauer on Audible

Better than the short introduction, but I would still listen to it because it includes his essay On Women.

Concise and clear Kastrup

This is Kastrup at his best - concise, clear, and cogent. His argument purports to rehabilitate Schopenhauer's reputation in metaphysics, by supplying his own analytical idealism to fill in gaps and disentangle Schopenhauer's different uses of the same term. It's insightful and very interesting at very least, though I cannot attest to how well it makes sense of Schopenhauer as I haven't yet read him. I'm excited to though!
