| Sommario/riassunto: | Do we know or even have evidence that external material objects exist? Butchvarov offers an original approach to this perennial philosophical issue, putting forward a radical theory of perception in proposing that perceived material objects do not necessarily actually exist. The metaphysics of reality, unreality and perception are explored. |
