 Elizabeth Barnes’s Current Controversies in Metaphysics features ten essays by leading experts on some of the most central debates in the field. It is an excellent addition to Routledge’s Current Controversies series, and a valuable resource for anyone looking to find a sophisticated yet accessible overview of key conversations now taking place within this core area of philosophy.--Michael Rea, University of Notre Dame 
A first-rate collection of first-rate philosophers doing good old-fashioned, first-order metaphysics. Current Controversies in Metaphysics puts leaders in the field in direct conversation on some of the most central debates in metaphysics.
--Daniel Z. Korman, University of Illinois
I highly recommend this book　for anyone who is interested in exploring the ideas and issues that are central to contemporary debates in metaphysics.　The volume consists of a series of engaging and lively debates between some of the most interesting and important metaphysicians working today. The chapters discuss fundamentality, states of affairs, truth, existence, and properties, and are curated and introduced by Elizabeth Barnes, herself one of the best metaphysicians in the field. The philosophy is of the highest quality and the reader will gain insight into fundamental problems and issues in metaphysics.
