Additional information

A version of this paper was read at the Royal Institute of Philosophy's Conference on Space, Time, and Causality at the University of Keele in September 1981. I am grateful to Professor Swinburne for the opportunity to present it, and to the Consultancy Fund of the School of Education, U.W.I., Mona, Jamaica, for some support towards the costs of attending the conference. I should also like to acknowledge the financial support of the Humanities' Research Fund of Fourah Bay College, the University of Sierra Leone, towards my work on the philosophy of space and time some years ago.
