Everyday Metaphysical Explanation
Oxford: Oxford University Press (2022)
Abstract
Kristie Miller and James Norton present a new account of metaphysical explanation, not as a philosophical technicality but as a feature of everyday life. This is the notion that we all use in ordinary contexts when we give explanations of a certain sort: Miller and Norton build their account on investigation of these explanatory practices.Author Profiles
