Metaphysics and Morality

J.J.C. Smart became a pioneer in re-creating a fashion for substantive philosophy rather than philosophical analysis. He became one of the leaders in the naturalistic programme of providing answers to philosophical questions, and indeed formulating the questions themselves, in the light of contemporary science. `Metaphysics and Morality' is a collection of essays by leading philosophers on topics related closely to Professor Smart's work. They deal with a wide spread of issues, ranging across physics and neurophysiology, psychology and moral theory. The volume concludes with a response by Professor Smart to each contribution. This book is suitable for graduate students and specialists in philosophy.
