Abstract
First paragraph: Batterman's latest book develops a series of arguments on important themes and questions which he is largely responsible for bringing to the attention of the philosophical community. One principal theme is that reduction is far more difficult to achieve once we properly pay attention to ‘the devil in the details’.
