Abstract
Ethics, esthetics and logic are not addenda to philosophy but descriptions of the contents of reality, inventories of the properties of the matter and energy of the cosmos. The world is composed of the values of the good and the beautiful hung upon the structure of the true. Matter has truth and value because it occupies space and time. If we knew the totality of truths about any material thing, we could deduce from this its value. Understood in this way, truth is a function of space and value a function of time.
