“A book that speaks directly to students. By combining
accessible text selections with insightful commentary, clear
graphic devices for navigating within each chapter, and thoughtful
questions, this new collection provides an invaluable teaching tool
for major areas of contemporary metaphysics.”
Dale Jacquette, The Pennsylvania State University

“Reading Metaphysics is the perfect hybrid of an
attentively edited anthology and a lucidly instructive textbook.
Instead of overwhelming us with dozens of selections, the editors
have expertly chosen a small number of contemporary readings, thus
giving readers the time to probe deeply into the selected topics
and, more importantly, the time to learn how to take apart and
interact with a philosophical text. While the readings are
well-selected, the true strength of this book lies in the
editors’ commentary. Students will leave this book ready, and
eager, to take on more metaphysics and teachers will notice a
marked improvement in their students’ philosophical
ability.”
Andrew P. Mills, Otterbein College
