Craig Bourne
Divided into five problems associated with presentism: McTaggart's argument; a need for other times; how to deal with future contingent statements; how to deal with transtemporal relations, and the possibility of reference to the past; and how to talk meaningfully about past individuals despite their non-existence.
Keywords: presentism, McTaggart, future contingents, transtemporal relations, reference
