Sobre IBD

This book is an investigation into metaphysics: its aims, scope, methodology and practice. Dyke argues that metaphysics should (and on the whole does) take itself to be concerned with investigating the fundamental nature of reality, and suggests that the ontological significance of language has been grossly exaggerated in the pursuit of that aim.

But one can also ask what arguably amounts to the same question by asking 'Is the sentence ’There are numbers’ true?' Such semantic ascent implies that reality can be investigated by investigating our true sentences. This line of thought w...
