Issues surrounding the status and nature of `nonexistent objects'
constitute one of philosophy's oldest and densest thickets. In this
book Perszyk takes his readers surefootedly through this thicket,
informed both historically and at the level of contemporary
discussion of relevant themes. His main aim is to develop a
`bundle' or `set of properties' interpretation of Meinong's theory
of nonexistent objects (as opposed to a set of properties
neo-Meinongian metaphysics), and to defend this nonstandard
interpretation against competing views in both the philosophical
and scholarly literature on Meinong. The Meinong who emerges is
neither the hero nor the villain his friends and foes have commonly
led us to believe. This clearly written book is a valuable addition
both to the literature on Meinong and to contemporary metaphysics
of modality. It is written for students and professionals
interested in these, and related, areas.
