Synopsis de l’éditeur
"Rea's Arguing About Metaphysics is an excellent anthology which combines rigorous yet accessible essays in contemporary metaphysics with philosophically sophisticated and entertaining pieces of fiction. The result is an engaging and challenging volume certain to stimulate and introduce the philosophical novice to the delights of serious exploration in five central areas of metaphysics." -- Hud Hudson, Western Washington University, USA "Arguing About Metaphysics is Michael Rea's engaging addition to Routledge's well-regarded Arguing About Philosophy series. There are many ways in which this anthology gets it just right, and one would be hard pressed to find a better selection of readings... Michael Rea has put together a very fine anthology. He has picked five classical areas of investigation in metaphysics, and within each of those selections presents first-class investigations of various issues within the larger categories." -Patrick Beach in Teaching Philosophy (June 2010) Lire la suite...
