'''Metaphysics''' is the branch of [[philosophy]] investigating principles of [[reality]] transcending those of any particular [[science]]. [[Cosmology]] and [[ontology]] are traditional branches of metaphysics. It is concerned with explaining the ultimate nature of [[being]] and the world. "Metaphysician" is, counterintuitively, the name of someone that studies metaphysics, not metaphysicist.
