520 |a In ""The Philosophy of Nature, "" Brian Ellis provides a clear and forthright general summation of, and introduction to, the new essentialist position.

Brian Ellis exposes the philosophical and scientific credentials of the prevailing Humean metaphysic as less than compelling and makes the case for new essentia.
