"A traditional view of Hegel is that his philosophy is a philosophy of closure and finality, purporting to achieve a final synthesis via dialectical sublation (aufhebung). In this view, Hegel's teleology is seen as the contradiction to Nietzsche's openness and becoming. This work shows to the contrary. It explores the concept of plasticity, concept of intertwining opposites in a process of simultaneous creation and destruction and demonstrates that Hegel is a philosopher of incessant becoming, openness, potentiality and expectation. It calls for an a-dualistic thinking in approaching Hegel, thinking that deals with opposites as neither rigidly opposed nor united but as plastic."--Back cover
