D. M. Armstrong

Sketch for a Systematic Metaphysics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

David Armstrong sets out his metaphysical system in a set of concise and lively chapters each dealing with one aspect of the world. On the basis of the assumption that all that exists is the physical world of space-time, he constructs a coherent metaphysical scheme that gives plausible answers to many of the great problems of metaphysics.
