Inference from Signs. Ancient Debates about the Nature of Evidence. - J. Allen
Ancient Debates about the Nature of Evidence
KORTE INHOUD
James Allen presents an original and penetrating investigation of the notion of inference from signs, which played a central role in ancient philosophical and scientific method. Allen masters a broad range of ancient texts, discussing Aristotle, the Sceptics, the Stoics and the Epicureans, to provide the first comprehensive treatment of his topic. Inference from Signs fills an important gap in the histories of science and philosophy.
