Thisness Presentism by David Ingram
This book advances a new defence of presentism by developing a novel ontology of thisness, combining insights about the nature of essence, the metaphysics of propositions, and the relationship between true propositions and the elements of reality that make them true, alongside insights about time itself.-

"In this book, David Ingram presents a thoughtful, elegant, and beautifully argued defense of a particular version of presentism, one that has hitherto not been developed in detail. . The book is a superb piece of work. Anyone interested in the philosophy of time, whether presentist or non-presentist, metaphysician or non-metaphysician, stands to benefit greatly from engaging with it." – Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
David Ingram is an Associate Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of York and a Senior Member of the Centre for Philosophy of Time. He has published articles on metaphysics (particularly the metaphysics of time) in Analysis, Philosophical Studies, and The Philosophical Quarterly.
