Open Humanities Press has published a 2nd edition of Timothy Morton's Realist Magic: Objects, Ontology, Causality. Comes complete with a new preface by Morton.

Like all OHP books, Realist Magic is available open access:

https://www.openhumanitiespress.org/books/titles/realist-magic-2nd-ed/

Book description

#ObjectOriented ontology offers a startlingly fresh way to think about causality that takes into account developments in #physics since 1900. Causality, argues Object Oriented Ontology (OOO), is #aesthetic. In this book, Timothy Morton explores what it means to say that a thing has come into being, that it is persisting, and that it has ended. Drawing from examples in #physics, #biology, #ecology, #art, #literature and #music, Morton demonstrates the counterintuitive yet elegant explanatory power of OOO for thinking causality.

The book is published as part of the New Metaphysics series:
