Ruben, David (1999) Actions and their parts. In: Rockmore, T. (ed.) Proceedings of the Twentieth World Congress of Philosophy: Metaphysics. Philosophy Documentation Center, pp. 73-80. ISBN 9781889680060.
Abstract
Book synopsis: It is appropriate to ask about the prospects for metaphysics at the present time as we near the end of a century in which, perhaps more than at any other moment in its long history, metaphysics has been under persistent, unrelenting attack. The traditional concern with metaphysics is very old, depending on the definition, as old as philosophy, even its main theme. Depending on the point of view, much is at stake in the continued viability of metaphysics, including the viability of a central philosophical theme or even the very viability of philosophy itself as a meaningful enterprise.
