Zusammenfassung

The problem of the one and the many is central to ancient Greek philosophy, but surprisingly little attention has been paid to Aristotle's treatment of it in the Metaphysics. "The Central Books of the Metaphysics" are widely recognised as the most difficult portion of a most difficult work. This title aims to examine the "Central Books".
