Metaphysics is a complex field of study and finding a suitable metaphysics book to learn from can be somewhat confusing for those with a new interest in the subject. While some books focus strictly on metaphysics in terms of philosophy, there are a good number of authors who have thankfully taken the time to not only explain metaphysics spiritually but document its history and cultural viewpoints. The books can range from being very general in tone to winding, in-depth accounts complete with citations and bibliography.
