Steven French

The structure of the world: metaphysics and representation/ by Steven French - 1st ed. - Oxford ; Oxford University Press, 2014. - 394p.

Steven French articulates and defends the bold claim that there are no objects in the world. He draws on metaphysics and philosophy of science to argue for structural realism - the position that we live in a world of structures - and defends a form of eliminativism about objects that sets laws and symmetry principles at the heart of ontology.--
