Various accounts of the intrinsic\/extrinsic distinction are analysed in detail, and it is argued that the most promising approach to defining this distinction is to consider extrinsic properties as a particular type of relational property. Moreover, it is shown that two key notions in the metaphysics of properties, the supervenience relation and the dispositional\/categorical distinction, whose scope is usually restricted to intrinsic properties, can fruitfully be applied to extrinsic properties as well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47606674522263,"sku":"9783110325287","price":15171.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110325287.webp?v=1775041898","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-metaphysics-of-extrinsic-properties-9783110325287","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
