Jackson on Possible Worlds


"To refuse to use the possible-worlds way of looking at the issues we will be concerned with because of the ontological mysteries raised by possible worlds would, it seems to me, be not that different from refusing to count one's change at the supermarket because of the ontological mysteries raised by numbers."

-Frank Jackson, From Metaphysics to Ethics: A Defense of Conceptual Analysis, Oxford/Clarendon: 1998, p.13
