Reviews

Possibility is packed full of rich ideas Richard Woodward, The Philosophical Quarterly an excellent example of the contemporary approach in which the philosopher puts metaphysics first... The degree of clarity of intent and execution is such that there is (I think) little scope for the author to be misunderstood... [an] impressive, serious, and substantive contribution to the literature on modality. John Divers, Mind
