But it argues for them with vigor and erudition." Crawford L. Elder, Analysis Reviews "Oderberg exemplifies the unfortunately rare combination in analytical philosophy of rigorous and historically informed argumentationThis book places hylomorphism squarely on the table for discussion." Sebastian Rehnman, Review of Metaphysics "a major intellectual achievement....I can particularly recommend, for those interested in such matters--as many metaphysicians presently are--his very well informed discussion of powers and laws of nature, which raises important objections to many current accounts of these." E.J. Lowe, The Philosophical Quarterly "...there can be no doubt that this learned and rigorous work deserves a wide readership."--Edward Feser, Faith and Philosophy "Presents vigorous and wide-ranging arguments in defense of an Aristotelian metaphysical schemethis book puts forward many unfashionable views. But it argues for them with vigor and erudition."--Crawford L. Elder, Analysis Reviews "Oderberg moreover exemplifies the unfortunately rare combination in analytical philosophy of rigorous and historically informed argumentation. He interacts with Aristotle in Greek, Aquinas in Latin, Descartes in French, and Kant in German (usually in endnotes), and the importance of this comes, for instance, to the fore in Oderberg's analysis of Popper's irrelevant, ignorant and invalid points against real essences. Thus this book places hylomorphism squarely on the table for discussion."--Sebastian Rehnman, University of Stavanger, The Review of Metaphysics "...there can be no doubt that this learned and rigorous work deserves a wide readership."--Edward Feser, Faith and Philosophy
