Product Description
Review
This is the best anthology of metaphysics that I know of. It covers all the right topics with a good mix of classic and contemporary articles. Especially useful are the simple, elegant introductions to the various sections of the anthology (Peter Menzies, Macquarie University )
An excellent volume. Impressive editorial skill is displayed in introducing the student to all of the venerable and central elements of metaphysics. Concise and elegant introductory essays for each theme guide the reader deftly through a judicious selection of over 50 classic readings. It is difficult to imagine a contemporary course in metaphysics that would not benefit from making substantial use of this most welcome resource (John Divers, University of Sheffield )

A very approachable guide to a topic that can easily be made to be appear more complex than it is. (I am not saying it is an easy topic, just that some of the simpler aspects can appear more complex than they are if they are not well described or approached). Useful and enjoyable to read. I would recommend it to anyone interested in the topic, or facing an udergraduate level module in it.
