Knowledge and Reality brings together a selection of Colin McGinn's
philosophical essays from the 1970s to the 1990s, whose unifying
theme is the relation between the mind and the world. The essays
range over a set of prominent topics in contemporary philosophy,
including the analysis of knowledge, the a priori, necessity,
possible worlds, realism, mental representation, appearance and
reality, and colour. McGinn has written a new postscript to each
essay, placing it in its philosophical context by sketching the
background against which it was written, explaining its relations
to other notable work, and offering his current reflections on the
topic. The volume thus traces the development of McGinn's ideas and
their role in some central philosophical debates. Seen together the
essays offer a many-sided defence of realism, while emphasizing the
epistemological price that realism exacts.
