Why Did That Happen? Aristotle Has Four Answers and None of Them Are Helpful is your brutally sarcastic, surprisingly educational crash course in Aristotelian philosophy-specifically his theory of causality, aka why things happen according to a man who thought everything, including acorns and chairs, had a spiritual destiny.

In this delightfully vicious breakdown of Aristotle's metaphysics, Sophia Blackwell (author of Kant You Not) drags you through the Four Causes-material, formal, efficient, and final-with all the reverence of a philosopher who's had enough. Whether it's trees yearning to be trees, tables having identity crises, or humans trying to find meaning while simultaneously sabotaging themselves, this book dissects Aristotle's ancient framework with modern sarcasm and a side of existential dread.
