Jaegwon Kim is William Perry Faunce Professor of Philosophy at Brown University. His publications include a number of influential papers in metaphysics and philosophy of mind, and a book entitled Supervenience and Mind (1993). He is Editor with Ernest Sosa of Blackwell Readings in Epistemology. Ernest Sosa is Romeo Elton Professor of Natural Theology at Brown University. With Jonathan Dancy he is also co-editor of another volume in the Blackwell Companions to Philosophy Series, A Companion to Epistemology, and his other publication include Knowledge in Perspective.

"The Companion has a number of virtues that make it a useful resource for both students and professional philosophers. I must single out those {entries} on the continental philosophers and concepts as especially clearly written, non-jargony introductions. Many of the entries provided charming little arguments, or twists, on behalf of the author's already known positions. Indeed, this feature of the 'Companion' makes it of value even to the most advanced philosopher, already quite familiar with the topic." Alan Sidelle, The Philosophical Review
