Additional information

A primitive version of this paper was read to the Pacific Division of the American Philosophical Association in Sacramento, California (1982). I am indebted to Gary Watson for his constructive comments on that occasion; Rob Cummins, Tom Regan, David Rosenthal and Richard Routley for their comments on earlier drafts; and Derek Parfit for many helpful conversations on this and related matters.
