This book is an accessible introduction to the central themes of
contemporary metaphysics. It carefully considers accounts of
causation, freedom and determinism, laws of nature, personal
identity, mental states, time, material objects, and properties,
while inviting students to reflect on metaphysical problems. The
philosophical questions discussed include: What makes it the case
that one event causes another event? What are material objects?
Given that material objects exist, do such things as properties
exist? What makes it the case that a person may exist at two
different times? An Introduction to Metaphysics makes these tough
questions tractable by presenting the features and flaws of current
attempts to answer them. Intended primarily for students taking a
first class in metaphysics, this lucid and well-written text would
also provide an excellent introduction for anyone interested in
knowing more about this important area of philosophy.
