The target audience for A Concise Theory of Truly Everything comprises both specialist scholars and the more existentially curious members of the broader public. Although it introduces a comprehensive philosophical framework that spans diverse, complex areas of existential thought, no expert knowledge is required to grasp its core principles.
This text presents deep wisdom in an accessible manner to existentially curious readers. It provides them with an elegant yet expansive explanation of our existence, eschewing excessive exposition and expert jargon, which would only muddy the epistemological waters.
A Concise Theory of Truly Everything requires no magical thinking, mystical energies, or any other mysterious dynamics to make objective sense of our existence within reality. This book aspires to satiate the existential appetites of those who hunger for the objective equanimity that emerges from a rational explanation of the underlying necessity of everything that is.
There is a substantial audience already searching for a comprehensible text that logically explains the fundamental nature of reality, and objectively contextualizes our existential origin, intrinsic purpose, and ultimate destiny within it.
The potential reader base of A Concise Theory of Truly Everything is huge, and continues to expand as the increasing secularization of Western cultures—and their influence on the rest of the world—incites more and more people to join the rational mob searching for a degree of objective existential certainty. Furthermore, these days, we have access to more information than at any point in human history, and less knowledge of how to use it most effectively to improve the human condition. As a result, our need for objective insights that logically convey existential certainty has never been greater.
Until now, such certainty appeared to reside just beyond the reach of the physical sciences, or that of any comprehensive philosophical or spiritual consensus. A Concise Theory of Truly Everything brings it within the metaphysical grasp of all open-minded seekers.
The core constituency of this book’s audience is the fast growing demographic group of the religiously unaffiliated, also known as, the “Nones”. According to a 2012 Pew Research Center study, over the prior five years the American membership of this cohort of atheists, agnostics, humanists, and autonomous spiritual seekers swelled by 33% to 46 million people. A more recent Pew survey determined that as of 2018, the “Nones” represented 26% of all Americans; they now outnumber Catholics—the largest single religious denomination in the US.
However, also according to Pew, the majority of the growth in the world’s population has been in its most religious countries. Consequently, despite the rapid expansion in the numbers of the religiously unaffiliated in the West, their affiliated counterparts worldwide continue to outpace them.
A Concise Theory of Truly Everything aspires to provide objective existential certainty to both the burgeoning cohort of “Nones”, and the even faster growing worldwide population of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, and other fervent believers, without insulting the intelligence of the former or disparaging the various faiths of the latter. The potential of this book to unite these, often contentious, factions can eventually have a significant positive influence on its readers and ultimately our world.
