""Mereology: The Origins of Garlic Cures and the Art of Telling a Tale of Ragout" is scientific journalism of philosophical proportions that entertains and informs layman while providing a method for scientists to use in understanding the "proto-concepts" underscoring their own theories; thus opening an awareness to "where", "when", "how" and "why" scientists have arrived at the questionable time and space in which they (and we) are all now living. As a delivery device, humorous life experiences as well as tragic tasty metaphors and toothsome examples, as are befitting a Tale of Ragout, are used to bring forth meaning and context in the difficult to understand "proto-concepts", and transport, with speeds reaching well beyond those of light particles, the reader along with tales of amputation, murder, poisonings, mafia dealings, nuthouse internment, cross country bicycle tours, skateboarding, conspiracy-theories-come-true, indiscriminate sexual encounters and punk rock.

The book's theoretical dialogue, based on the phenomenological works of Edmund Husserl, Ernst Cassirer, Mikhail Bakhtin and Max Scheler, and interspersed with ample references to Nietzsche and Kierkegaard, argues that Descartes' mind-body dilemma separated existence and life (phenomenon), a separation that marks the end of humanity's (and philosophy's) earlier unified state of being of "whole and parts." However, it was George Berkeley, Gottfried Leibniz, and Baruch Spinoza who collectively deconstructed the mereological experience-an experience that permeated ancient philosophy (in general). The Garlic Cures uses the works of Aristotle as its primary ancient source, as the argument is simplified to keep the book under a thousand pages.
