2017/18 Leverhulme Research Fellowship for project ‘Wholes: Wholes: more than just the sum of their parts’ (Cotnoir). The fellowship will support the research for a book that argues that whole objects are unified yet genuinely new — distinct from mere sums of their parts. The book will put forward an original metaphysics of the structure of ordinary objects.
