The two eminent metaphysicians Armstrong and Grossmann exchanged
letters for ten years in which they discussed crucial points of
their respective ontologies. They have a common basis. Both do
metaphysics proper and not linguistic philosophy. Both advocate
universals and acknowledge the key position of the category of
states of affairs. However, they differ on the simplicity of
universals and the nature of states of affairs. There is also a
fundamental methodological disagreement between them. Armstrong
accepts only the evidence of natural science and has a materialist
view on mind while Grossmann is a dualist and grants also the same
evidential status to the phenomenological data of perception and
introspection. The letters are grouped into three phases. The first
is the issue of universals, the second the ontological analysis of
laws of nature and the third the ontology of numbers. The book
contains also longer comments and reviews, partly not published
until now.
