Individuation, process, and scientific practices / edited by Otávio Bueno, Ruey-lin Chen, Melinda B. Fagan.

This text concerns a classic philosophical question: 'What things count as individuals?' Rather than addressing it from the perspective of analytic metaphysics, the volume proposes to reformulate and answer it from the perspective of scientific practices.
