The Blackwell Guide to Metaphysics by Richard M Gale
The Blackwell Guide to Metaphysics is a definitive introduction to the core areas of metaphysics. It brings together sixteen internationally respected philosophers that demonstrate how metaphysics is done as they examine topics including causation, temporality, ontology, personal identity, idealism, and realism.
"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 fieldThe 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
Richard M. Gale is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Pittsburgh. He is the author of On the Nature and Existence of God (1991) and The Divided Self of William James (1999).
