"This book does a valuable service by clearing up some long-standing confusions on the question whether 'exists' is a meaningful predicate. . . . Barry Miller, well acquainted himself with analytic philosophy, shows cogently that all such objections are based on flawed presuppositions, such as that all real predicates signify a property that inheres in a pre-existing subject, which cannot be true of 'exists.' 'Socrates exists' signifies rather that Socrates is a 'bounded' instance of existence. . . . Miller ingeniously shows how the predicate 'exists' does not signify merely a minimum level of being; it also signifies that by which all the other real properties of anything are constituted as real."--Theological Studies
According to a fairly standard view, there are several reasons for denying that existence is a real property of individuals. One is that 'exists' cannot be predicated of individuals, and another is that first-level properties are parasitic on individuals for their actuality, which is something that existence could never be. A third is that existence adds nothing to individuals. Moreover, even if existence were to survive all three counter-indications, it would be merely the most vacuous of properties. The Fullness of Being, however, argues that this view of existence is seriously awry. In this brilliant book, Barry Miller argues that existence is not merely a real property of individuals, but by far the richest of their properties.
