A Survey of Metaphysics provides a systematic overview of modern metaphysics, covering all of the most important topics likely to be encountered on a metaphysics course. The conception of metaphysics underlying the book is the fairly traditional and widely-shared one that metaphysics deals with the deepest questions that can be raised concerning the fundamental structure of reality as a whole. The book is divided into six main parts, each relatively self-contained, focusing in turn on the following major themes: identity and change, necessity and essence, causation, agency and events, space and time, and universals and particulars. In an introductory chapter, the conception of metaphysics underlying the book is explained and defended against the many and varied opponents of metaphysics those students are likely to encounter. While the book makes reference when necessary to the history of metaphysics, its emphasis is on contemporary views and issues. The author's approach is not narrowly partisan, but avoids bland neutrality in matters of controversy.

其实不算survey，很多模块并没有把领域基本的结构以及literature呈现出来。更像是一篇essay，很多地方Lowe都在argue自己的想法，但是有可能是篇幅所限，很多观点我实在不觉得convincing。不过作为upper division textbook，这样的写法至少保证了深度，非常well-informed and reliable，而且不得不说elegantly written，所以还是五星啦
评分看了前七章。难度在于逻辑很简练，适合做升级教材
