Books by D.M. Armstrong

An extended dialogue between three distinguished philosophers on the many problems associated with dispositions which is then linked to other issues, such as the nature of mind, matter, universals, existence, laws of nature and causation.

First published in 1968, this text remains the most compelling, comprehensive statement of the view that the mind is material. In the preface to this new edition, the author reflects on the book's impact in the light of recent debates.
