Engagement and Metaphysical Dissatisfaction: Modality and Value

Engagement and Metaphysical Dissatisfaction: Modality and Value We all have beliefs to the effect that if a certain thing were to happen a certain other thing would happen. We also believe that some things simply must be so, with no possibility of having been otherwise. And in acting intentionally we all take certain things to be good reason to believe or do certain things. In this book Barry Stroud argues that some beliefs of each of these kinds are indispensable to our having any conception of a world at all.
