Inhaltsangabe

This book defends a brand of non-exceptionalist eliminativism. Benovsky takes one by one all types of allegedly existing objects, including living beings and persons, and shows that from the metaphysical point of view we are much better off without them.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Having been struck by Descartes' evil demon thought-experiment, Jiri Benovsky began to study metaphysics to try to find a proof that the world really exists. He did not find that proof, but at least he found a job at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, where he can not only go in the mountains but also spend his days thinking about things like existence, reality, personal identity, possible worlds, material objects, and time. He is the author of several books, mainly in the fields of metaphysics and aesthetics, including Meta-metaphysics: On metaphysical equivalence, primitiveness, and theory choice (2016) and Persistence through time, and across possible worlds (2006).
