Cover of Robert C. Koons: Realism Regained (PDF)

In this wide-ranging philosophical work, Koons takes on two powerful dogmas–anti-realism and materialism. In doing so, Koons develops an elegant metaphysical system that accounts for such phenomena as information, mental representation, our knowledge of logic, mathematics and science, the structure of spacetime, the identity of physical objects, and the objectivity of values and moral norms.
