The metaphysics of ordinary objects is an increasingly vibrant
field of study for philosophers. This volume gathers insights from
a number of leading authors, who together tackle the central issues
in contemporary debates about the subject. Their essays engage with
topics including composition, persistence, perception, categories,
images, artifacts, truthmakers, metaontology, and the relationship
between the manifest and scientific images. Exploring the nature of
everyday things, the contributors situate their arguments and the
latest research against the background of the field's development.
Moreover, many essays propose new ideas and approaches, looking
ahead to the future of the metaphysical study of ordinary objects.
Featuring numerous clearly explained examples and with thoughtful
links drawn to other, related disciplines such as pragmatism, this
wide-ranging volume fills a major gap in the literature and will be
important for scholars working in metaphysics.
