- Seventeen previously unpublished papers on one of the hottest topics in philosophy
- The first collection of essays on the topic
- This book will be the definitive volume on disjunctivism for many years to come
- Stellar line-up of contributors
Disjunctivism has attracted considerable philosophical attention in recent years: it has been the source of a lively and extended debate spanning the philosophy of perception, epistemology, and the philosophy of action. Adrian Haddock and Fiona Macpherson present seventeen specially written essays, which examine the different forms of disjunctivism and explore the connections between them. This volume will be an essential resource for anyone working in the central areas of philosophy, and the starting point for future research in this fascinating field.Readership: Graduate and professional philosophers
interested in epistemology, philosophy of mind and action or metaphysics.
