Summary: Total Gibberish
Comment: I have no idea what the other 3 reviewers saw in this book; it is utterly incomprehensible. This is not "dense language," this is nonsense. Don't believe me? Try to make any sense out of this passage: "Total presence breaks on the univocal predication of the exterior absolute the absolute existent(of that of which it is not possible to univocally predicate an outside, while the equivocal predication of the outside of the absolute exterior is possible of that of which the reality so predicated is not the reality, viz., of the dark/of the self, the identity of which is not outside the absolute identity of the outside, which is to say that the equivocal predication of identity is possible of the self-identity which is not identity, while identity is univocally predicated of the limit to the darkness, of the limit of the reality of the self). This is the real exteriority of the absolute outside: the reality of the absolutely unconditioned absolute outside univocally predicated of the dark: the light univocally predicated of the darkness: the shining of the light univocally predicated of the limit of the darkness: actuality univocally predicated of the other of self-identity: existence univocally predicated of the absolutely unconditioned other of the self. The precision of the shining of the light breaking the dark is the other-identity of the light. The precision of the absolutely minimum transcendence of the dark is the light itself/the absolutely unconditioned exteriority of existence for the first time/the absolutely facial identity of existence/the proportion of the new creation sans depth/the light itself ex nihilo: the dark itself univocally identified, i.e., not self-identity identity itself equivocally, not the dark itself equivocally, in "self-alienation," not "self-identity, itself in self-alienation" "released" in and by "otherness," and "actual other," "itself," not the abysmal inversion of the light, the reality of the darkness equivocally, absolute identity equivocally predicated of the self/selfhood equivocally predicated of the dark..." And so on. I rest my case.

Summary: Being is a person
Comment: It required about six months of daily, painstaking reading for me to acquire a firm grasp of Leahy's dense language. At this point revelations began to occur that have changed me and continue to change me absolutely and essentially!!! If you seek ultimate knowledge, you will find it here!!! If you value ease, comfort, and normalcy in your life, then do not read this book!!! Read it if you must read it. I'll see you on the (only) side! (!)
