More about the book

Exploring the origins of modal ontology, this work connects the concept to the mathematical discourse on incommensurable magnitudes, which influenced Plato's dialogues and the definition of being as dynamis in the Sophist. It posits that these magnitudes resolve the issue of non-being, establishing a foundation for a philosophy centered on difference and becoming. The book traces the evolution of rationality from measurement to mediation, illustrating how this philosophical thread informs Kantian transcendentalism and subsequent philosophies like Hegelianism and hermeneutics.
