One and Many in Aristotle's Metaphysics: Books Alpha-Delta

by Edward C. Halper

Aristotle ultimately undermines the problem of the one and many, but understanding how he treats the problem provides a surprising amount of cogency and coherence to Aristotle's often difficult text and shows why he thinks a science of metaphysics exists.

Edward Halper's three volume One and Many in Aristotle's 'Metaphysics' contends that Aristotle argues for his central metaphysical doctrines by showing that they alone resolve various versions of what is known as the problem of the one and the many.
