There are, however, both commonsense and naturalistic reasons for not fully adopting a substance ontology, which indicate that we ought to suspend judgment with respect to the acceptance of a substance ontology. Doing so allows room to further explore other ontologies. In this book, Andrew M. Winters argues that there are both commonsense and naturalistic reasons for further pursuing a process ontology. Adopting a process ontology allows us to overcome many of the difficulties facing a substance ontology while also accommodating many of the phenomenon that substance ontologies were appealed to for explanation. Given these reasons, we have both commonsense and naturalistic reasons for pursuing and developing a metaphysics without substance. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Ontology; Whitehead; McTaggart; Ayer; Carnap | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-67570-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88449-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-67570-1 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
