A comprehensive introductory study of the key concepts and problems in traditional and contemporary metaphysics. Aune presents and defends a point of view that is naturalistic, nominalistic and pragmatic-an approach that has the overall advantage of providing a coherent, structured view of the topics he discusses.

Bruce Aune is professor of philosophy at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Among his publications are Kant’s Theory of Morals and the textbook Rationalism, Empiricism, and Pragmatism.
