Abstract

This is a draft of a chapter of a book that I was writing (in the early 2000s) on the philosophy of spacetime. It responds to Kant's argument of the lone hand, proposing a relational 'fitting' account of handedness. I plan to revise it as a stand-alone paper, but it is deposited now so that a soon to be published paper can cite a public version.
