Properties by Douglas Edwards

Properties by Douglas Edwards

* Up-to-date and beautfifully written, Properties is the most comprehensive introduction to this important area of metaphysics * Writing with verve and clarity, Edwards explains difficult philosophical concepts in a straightforward manner.

"Talk of properties is ubiquitous throughout philosophy, but the literature on the subject can be disparate and thornyEdwards has therefore produced an extremely valuable book – one which not only presents a masterful overview of the current literature on the nature of properties, but, building on earlier work by Lewis, presents a new 'pluralist' view of the subject. A must read for anyone working on properties or metaphysics more generally."
Michael Lynch, University of Connecticut

"A nice introduction to the extremely dense group of issues that surround the metaphysics of properties. The reader-friendly prose and presentation of ideas make this difficult topic accessible to undergraduates and other non-experts."
Paul Audi, University of Nebraska at Omaha

Douglas Edwards is lecturer in philosophy at the University of Aberdeen.
