This is a course in metaphysics: the discipline that tells us about the nature of the world. The unit carries on from the Reality component of first year. We use philosophical methods to engage with questions like: What is time? What is space? What are the natures of possibility, freedom and identity? What is a cause, and what is a law of nature? Do we have free will? Does the world really exist - and what does "really" mean?
