Kathrin Koslicki offers an
analysis of ordinary material objects, those material
objects to which we take ourselves to be committed in ordinary, scientifically
>
informed discourse. She focuses particularly on the question of how the parts
of such objects are related to the wholes which they compose.
Many philosophers today find themselves in the grip of an exceedingly
deflationary conception of what it means to be an object, According to
this conception, any plurality of objects, no matter how disparate or gerry¬
mandered, itself composes an object, even if the objects in question fail to
exhibit interesting similarities, internal unity, cohesion, or causal interaction
amongst each other.
This commitment to initially counterintuitive objects follows from the belief
that no principled set of criteria is available by means of which to distinguish
intuitively gerrymandered objects from commonsensical ones; the project of
this book is to persuade the reader that systematic principles can be found
by means of which composition can be restricted, and hence that we need
not embrace this deflationary approach to the question of what it means
to be an object.
To this end, a more full-blooded neo-Aristotelian account of parthood and
composition is developed according to which objects are structured wholes:
it is integral to the existence and identity of an object, on this conception, that
its parts exhibit a certain manner of arrangement. This structure-based concep¬
tion of parthood and composition is explored in detail, along with some of its
historical precursors as well as some of its contemporary competitors.
