Reviews

While this study firmly belongs to the history of philosophy, Pfeiffer makes a compelling case for treating Aristotle as an ancient forerunner to the modern metaphysical study of mereotopology. Pfeiffer deftly shows how Aristotle can engage with moderns on issues ... This book is, therefore, of interest not only to historians of philosophy but also to modern metaphysicians ... Pfeiffer accomplishes the major goal of his project * Sean M. Costello, N/A, Bryn Mawr Classical Review *
