'An impressive work ... It provides a systematic and comprehensive discussion that will be of great help for all doing research in the area, and would make the basis for a great graduate seminar. Highly recommended!' - Mind"This is a fine scholarly work -- detailed, clear, and accurate -- with an extensive bibliography and an excellent index. While undergraduates would find all of it daunting, it will be valuable to seasoned graduate students and researchers with an interest in modal metaphysics." -- John Nolt, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, Teaching Philosophy
