Warner Arms Wick was an American philosopher and professor at The University of Chicago. The author argues that based on the assumption, (taken over from what appears to be MeKeon's interpretation of the history of philosophy) that there are two possible metaphysical systems, "Aristotelian" and the Platonie." He tries to show that neither of these types of philosophy becomes invalidated by the anti-metaphysical critiques of logical empiricism. Chapters in Part One of the book include; Theses Without Theory, Philosophy as Logic, Identifying Principles of Conventionally Symbolic Discourse, Logical Empiricism and Traditional Views of Logic.
Chapters in Part Two of the book include; Kinds of Metaphysics, Metaphysics a Logical Interpretation, Metaphysics Platonism and Its Variants, and Logical Empiricism and Metaphysics.
A bibliography is included.
