Więcej o książce

The book offers a robust defense of neo-Aristotelian essentialism, addressing fundamental questions about the existence and knowability of essences in objects. It challenges the skepticism fostered by empiricism and influential philosophers like Wittgenstein and Quine. By revitalizing realist metaphysics, the work argues for the reality of essence and its significance in contemporary debates, including its implications for science, the essence of life, biological species, and the concept of personhood.
