Book Title: One: Being an Investigation into the Unity of Reality and of its Parts, including the Singular Object which is Nothingness Book Author: Graham Priest (Author) Hardcover: 272 pages Publisher: Oxford University Press (May 27, 2014) Language: English ISBN-10: 0199688257 ISBN-13: 978-0199688258 Book Description Publication Date: March 27, 2014 Graham Priest presents an original exploration of philosophical questions concerning the one and the many. He covers a wide range of issues in metaphysics--including unity, identity, grounding, mereology, universals, being, intentionality, and nothingness--and deploys the techniques of paraconsistent logic in order to offer a radically new treatment of unity. Priest brings together traditions of Western and Asian thought that are usually kept separate in academic philosophy: he draws on ideas from Plato, Heidegger, and Nagarjuna, among other philosophers. About the Author Graham Priest was educated at St. John's College, Cambridge, and the London School of Economics. He has held professorial positions at a number of universities in Australia, the UK, and the USA. He is well known for his work on non-classical logic, and its application to metaphysics and the history of philosophy. Sharing Widget |
