This is a difficult but important work for those researching in these areas. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.

- A. Jaeger, Benedictine College, Choice

This major and important study offers a genuinely contemporary ontology that does not shy away from thinking a contingent God beyond the confines of possible-God theologies. Inspired by Schelling, the author shows which speculative theology remains possible today after ontotheology. A crucial and much needed contribution to a fundamental debate.

Gert-Jan van der Heiden, Radboud University

Focusing on the central striking claim that there is something rather than nothing – that all necessity is consequent – Tritten engages with a wide range of ancient as well as contemporary philosophers including Quentin Meillassoux, Richard Kearney, Friedrich Schelling, Émile Boutroux and Markus Gabriel. He examines the ramifications of this truth arguing that even reason and God, while necessary according to essence, are utterly contingent with respect to existence.
