About this title

Synopsis

A powerful challenge to some highly influential theories, this book offers a thorough critical exposition of modal realism, the philosophical doctrine that many possible worlds exist of which our own universe is just one. Chihara challenges this claim and offers a new argument for modality without worlds.

About the Author

Charles S. Chihara is Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, Berkeley.
