| Sommario/riassunto: | Christopher Shields presents the first full study of a key feature of Aristotle's philosophical and scientific investigations: his concern with the homonymy of certain concepts, that is, with the fact that a single concept stands for a multiplicity of kinds of thing. Shields examines how Aristotle seeks order within this multiplicity, in a variety of areas of inquiry, and demonstrates the continuing fruitfulness of his methodology. |
