Book Synopsis Likeness and Likelihood in the Presocratics and Plato by : Jenny Bryan
Book excerpt: Studies the philosophical development of the meaning of the Greek word eoikos, which can be used to describe similarity, plausibility or even suitability. It focuses on Xenophanes, Parmenides and Plato's Timaeus and shows how such a study serves to enhance our understanding of their epistemology and methodology.
