Introducing myself

A semi-retired steel plant manager and metallurgical engineer with a master's degree in engineering management, conferred in 1996 by the University of Pretoria (South Africa). My enquiry started while working towards my master's, commencing by questioning some long-accepted knowledge and dogma - trying to understand things. This enquiry continued through a highly successful career. Since my official retirement in 2018 I worked on various projects related to my profession but also started to order my thoughts into some cohesive reasoning. This ordering of thoughts morphed into a manuscript that has been published explaining my Understanding of Things. The Logic of Existence
I would appreciate if I could test my understanding on this forum.
