Abstract
Tonneau attributes an antirealist position to my writing. In my reply I argue
that my position is not antirealist, but a-ontological. I subsequently consider the
implications of Tonneau’s core arguments in light of my a-ontological position and find
that his claims do not apply to my work. Finally, I suggest an a-ontological approach to the
realism controversy.
