Our world is full of composite objects that persist through time: dogs, persons, chairs and rocks. But in virtue of what do a bunch of little objects get to compose some bigger object, and how does that bigger object persist through time? This book aims to answer these questions, but it does so by looking at accounts of composition and persistence through a new methodological lens. It asks the question: what does it take for two theories to be genuinely different, and how can we know whether what seems like metaphysical disagreement is really just semantic disagreement?By offering a framework within which to explore issues of theoretical diversity, this book provides a novel way of thinking about the inter-relationship between composition and persistence. Ultimately, it argues for a new way of thinking about these issues, a way that does not preserve the standard theoretical dichotomies between four-dimensionalist theories on the one hand, and three-dimensionalist theories on the other.

What is Metaphysical Equivalence?.- The Puzzles of Persistence.- Defining Our Terms.- Issues of Composition.- The Metaphysical Equivalence of Unitary Three- and Four-dimensionalism.- The Metaphysical Equivalence of Non-Unitary Three- and Four-dimensionalism.- Travelling in Time.- Empirical Equivalence and Special Relativity. Offers a completely novel view about persistence and composition Explores issues of theoretical diversity and provides a way of determining when disagreement is merely semantic, and when it is substantial Explores metaphysical issues from a new methodological perspective by first answering questions about theoretical diversity, and then exploring traditional first-order metaphysical issues
