Title: Understanding Physicalism
Description: "Physicalism is a metaphysical thesis easily presented in slogan form--there is nothing over and above the physical--but notoriously difficult to formulate precisely. Understanding physicalism combines insights from contemporary philosophy of mind and metaphysics to present a new account of physical properties and metaphysical dependence and, on this foundation, develop a more rigorous and illuminating formulation of the thesis of physicalism." --Back cover.
