Supervenience is one of the 'hot discoveries' of analytic
philosophy, and this collection of essays on the topic represents
an examination of it and its application to major areas of
philosophy. The interest in supervenience has much to do with the
flexibility of the concept. To say that x supervenes on y indicates
a degree of dependence without committing one to the view that x
can be reduced to y. Thus supervenience is a relationship that has
the potential of replacing the traditional notion of dependence,
while performing at least part of the function reductive
relationships were supposed to fulfil. Moreover, since it is a
topic-neutral concept, supervenience has a wide range of
applicability.
