What is A Defense of Trivialism about?

That trivialism ought to be rejected is almost universally held. I argue that the rejectionof trivialism should be held in suspicion and that there are good reasons for thinkingthat trivialism is true. After outlining in chapter 1 the place of trivialism in the history ofphilosophy, I begin in chapter 2 an outline and defense of the various arguments infavor of the truth of trivialism. I defend four such arguments: an argument from theCurry Paradox; and argument from the Characterization Principle; an argument fromthe Principle of Sufficient Reason; and an argument from the truth of possibilism.
