This book is a collection of essays in systematic ontology. The
parts of its title - "Things" and "Ways They Are" - are indicative
of two broadly and intensively discussed issues in current
ontology, namely, what categories of entities there are and in what
ways they are relevant for our discourses. The three sections of
the volume correspond to focuses of ontological research: "Before
Ontology" is dedicated to conceptual, methodological, and
meta-ontological issues; "Ontology at Work" raises general topics
of categorial ontology, and the final section "Ontology in
Application" discusses questions such as those relating to free
will and our conception of the human being. The book is a tribute
to Edmund Runggaldier on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Its
seventeen papers are authored by such distinguished scholars as
Lynne Rudder Baker, Franz von Kutschera, E. J. Lowe, Otto Muck,
Paul Weingartner, Timothy Williamson, and many others.
