Categories by Michael Gorman

Addresses the subject of categories: What are they? How are they used in speaking and thinking? What role do they play in our moral deliberations? Why are there different sorts of categories? And are categories independent of our thinking and speaking, giving objective form to the world we aim to think and speak about?

All of the essays in this collection are new, written especially for this volumeMany of them do a wonderful job of showing the similarities and differences between the major thinkers on the nature of categories. [This book] will serve as a valuable and informative tool to the specialist and non-specialist alike."" — Lloyd Newton, Review of Metaphysics
