Lynne Baker’s Challenge: Metaphysical and Practical Approaches

“If there is an impersonal conception of the world that includes all the individuals and all their properties, then we have the ingredients of all facts about every individual. How, then, is there a place for the putative fact that some particular person is me?” (Lynne Baker, 2013)

“Intellectualism and empiricism do not give us any account of the human experience of the world: they tell us what God might think about it” (Maurice Merleau Ponty, 1945)
