The Oxford Handbook of Metaphysics

Contains essays about 'what there is': what kinds of things there are, and what relations hold among entities falling under various categories. This title discusses topics as identity, modality, time, causation, persons and minds, freedom, and vagueness. It is designed as a reference for students and academics across the philosophical spectrum.
The Oxford Handbooks series is a major new initiative in academic publishing. Each volume offers an authoritative and up-to-date survey of original research in a particular subject area.

The Oxford Handbook of Metaphysics offers the most authoritative and compelling guide to this diverse and fertile field of philosophy. Twenty-four of the world's most distinguished specialists provide brand-new essays about what kinds of things there are, in what ways they exist, and how they relate to each other. They give the latest word on such topics as identity, modality, time, causation, persons and minds, freedom, and vagueness. The Handbook's unrivalled breadth and depth make it the definitive reference work for students and academics across the philosophical spectrum.
