| adam_text | Thomas Satrig develops and defends a novel philo-
sophical picture of ordinary objects, such as persons,
tables, trees, and mountains. His theorvcarves a middle
wav between the two accounts that have dominated
è
traditional metaphysics of material objects, namely,
classical mcreology and Aristotelian Isomorphism.
It answers metaphysical, semantical, and psychological
questions in a unified framework: What is the nature
of ordinary objects? How do we speak about such
objects? And how do we conceive of them? The core
thesis is that ordinary objects lead double lives: they
are compounds of matter and ferm; and since their
matter and ferm have different qualitative profiles,
ordinary objects can be described differently from
different conceptual perspectives. A philosophical
theory of ordinary objects faces the hard task of saving our common-sense conception of objects
from a wide range of hard problems that present our familiar worldview as internally inconsistent
and as incompatible with plausible metaphysical principles. The book argues that the proposed
theory does a better job than its rivals in saving the appearances. Hie key that unlocks each problem
is that seemingly inconsistent judgements about objects are really consistent because they manifest
different perspectives on the same double-layered objects. Many long-standing philosophical
mvsteries about ordinary objects dissolve, once we realize that thev lead double lives. The theorv
contributes to a wide variety of;philosophical debates, including those about parts and composition,
persistence, coincidence and constitution, personal identity, modality de the grounding problem,
determinism, vague objects, the problem of the many, and relativistic metaphysics.
