Oxford Studies in Metaphysics is the forum for the best new work in
this flourishing field. Much of the most interesting work in
philosophy today is metaphysical in character: this series is a
much-needed focus for it. OSM offers a broad view of the subject,
featuring not only the traditionally central topics such as existence,
identity, modality, time, and causation, but also the rich clusters of
metaphysical questions in neighbouring fields, such as philosophy of
mind and philosophy of science. Besides independent essays, volumes
will often contain a critical essay on a recent book, or a symposium
that allows participants to respond to one another's criticisms and
questions. This fifth volume is largely focused on the metaphysics of
time, with sections on time travel; persistence through time; and
time, space, and location. The final section of the volume is devoted
to a neglected topic that is starting to attract philosophical
attention: the metaphysics of sounds. Anyone who wants to know what's
happening in metaphysics can start here.
