The parts of its title - "Things" and "Ways They Are" - are indicative of two broadly and intensively discussed issues in current ontology, namely, what categories of entities there are and in what ways they are relevant for our discourses. The three sections of the volume correspond to focuses of ontological research: "Before Ontology" is dedicated to conceptual, methodological, and meta-ontological issues; "Ontology at Work" raises general topics of categorial ontology, and the final section "Ontology in Application" discusses questPhilosophische Analyse / Philosophical AnalysisOntologyElectronic books.Ontology.110Kanzian Christian555524Löffler Winfried1038315Quitterer Josef1043465MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452820103321Ways things are2468458UNINA
