The Blackwell Guide to Metaphysics

"If you want to find out what's going on at the leading edge of current metaphysics, there is no better place to look than this volume of new essays by some of the most original and productive minds now working in this field. The topics they discuss range far and wide, encompassing many central issues of metaphysics such as causation, time, the self, events, ontological categories, and the relation between physics and metaphysics. This book is not only a ‘guide' to metaphysics but also includes substantial new contributions to the field." Jaegwon Kim, Brown University
