{"product_id":"aristotle-on-the-category-of-relation","title":"Aristotle on the Category of Relation","description":"In \u003ci\u003eAristotle on the Category of Relation\u003c\/i\u003e, Pamela Hood challenges the view that Aristotle's conception of relation is so divergent from our own that it does not count as a theory of relation at all. Professor Hood examines Aristotle's various treatments of relation and relational entities with a special focus on Aristotle's two central texts on relation, \u003ci\u003eCategories\u003c\/i\u003e 7 and \u003ci\u003eMetaphysics\u003c\/i\u003e V.15. While the common view is that Aristotle does not have, and indeed could not have, a theory that accounts for dyadic relations, Hood's analysis reveals Aristotle's deep commitment to the dyadic nature of relation. She also unearths a feature in Aristotle's relational theory that appears to account not only for the terms of a dyadic relation, but also for the relation itself. This book presents compelling evidence that Aristotle's theory of relation is more robust than originally suspected.","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54233498812760,"sku":"9780761830078","price":55.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780761830078.jpg?v=1769681734","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/aristotle-on-the-category-of-relation","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
