- W599916235 abstract "Material Beings is an immensely important work in contemporary metaphysics,even though hardly any metaphysicians accept its central conclusion. (Manyworks of contemporary metaphysics are like this: metaphysicians are adisputatious lot). There is a lot of value in Material Beings about themetaphysics of parts and wholes, material addressing the metaphysics ofexistence over time, puzzles about existence of people over time, and asurprising defence, in the final two chapters of the book, of abandoningclassical logic in metaphysics in favour of a three valued logic. In thiscommentary, however, I will focus on what I take to be the main conclusion ofthe book, what van Inwagen says to sugar the pill of this conclusion, and a newproblem that arises for van Inwagen’s theory which is very similar to the sort ofproblem he is at such pains to solve. Finally, I suggest that reflection on thisnew problem raises an epistemic challenge to van Inwagen’s position." @default.
