Summary

Phaedrus is sailing down the Hudson River when he meets Lila Blewitt. He is drawn to her physically and interested in her intellectually. Lila prompts Phaedrus to explore conflicts of values, and finally, he formulates his Metaphysics of Quality, which offer a system of understanding actions according to a hierarchy of four evolutionary realms.
