In this book, the human beeing is viewed as a part of the universe that, like everything in the cosmos, acts according to aims that are governed by laws. Everything supposedly metaphysical, which used to play a major role because one wanted to explain everything with it out of ignorance, and some of which still has an effect today, are structures that have developed in the brain. If you take a closer look at them, you will see that they have no other content. With metaphysics, mankind has not advanced a single step in knowledge for 2000 years. This way of seeing the world is a playground for some philosophers, who sanctify their realities (without having to - or being able to) prove whatever comes to mind. Metaphysics calls itself a science. That's why she changed her name to ontology (especially the second syllable -logie is meant to indicate this). Whatever she calls herself; behind it is the claim that it creates knowledge. This is certainly not the case because everything she says is unverifiable. But it creates faith; self-felt belief.
