From an Ontological Point of View

I agree with the other descriptions provided here. In addition, I would add that John Heil makes it clear where his expertise ends. He's not afraid to admit being confounded by claims made by other philosophers. This gives one a way forward in a field cluttered with contradictory claims. It is actually helpful. I would also point out that this book opens onto other work by the same author, written in the same clear style. I am currently enjoying the opportunity to explore his other books. These are helpful, as well.
