    Sounds like he's an Object-Oriented Onanist...

      I'm not going to add anything except to say that I read the same article, but couldn't get beyond the title, and gave up after a while.

        Not having read the review but just going on the words, it sounds like materialism/empiricism repackaged for the avocado toast munching generation.

          I'm not subscribed, so I just read the title and precisely. I can't believe people write entire books on such things.

          It's like that time I read an entire article on why this woman loves the word 'limn'. I almost gave up reading. Like, entirely.

            I'm suspicious of anything calling itself "objective" or "realism." Everything is relational, man. EVERYTHING. Nothing is literally or "objectively" anything.

              Object is not the same as objective though

                I'm not a subscriber and don't want to give them an email address.

                IMHO most of philosophy is complete wank. It's an academic subject designed to keep people occupied otherwise they might get up to mischief.

                  Does this work for people?

                  It's more than 5000 words, so cutting and pasting will be a bit of a pain.

                    Nope. Just the first paragraph.

                    And I'm very unlikely to read a 5000 word review of a book like that anyway.

                      If only we had a professional philosopher to hand to debate the point in a measured and amiable manner.

                        I've been in touch . . .

                          It’s suspiciously close.

                            At first I thought it said odontology which would have put a different bite on things.

                              Haha.

                              I stand by my opinion, having defined the ontology of the object.
