So, rather than tailoring their ontology to the posits of the successful sciences, as scientific naturalists do, liberal naturalists recognise the prima facie irreducible reality of everyday objects that are part of what Wilfrid Sellars called "the manifest image".[4] Naturalism in Question (Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, April 2004), p.
