More Kinds of Being: A Further Study of Individuation, Identity, and the Logic of Sortal Terms

E. J. Lowe

Taking into account significant developments in the metaphysical thinking of E. J. Lowe over the past 20 years, More Kinds of Being: A Further Study of Individuation, Identity, and the Logic of Sortal Terms presents a thorough reworking and expansion of the 1989 edition of Kinds of Being . This book brings many of the original ideas and arguments put forth in Kinds of Being thoroughly up-to-date in light of new developments. It features a thorough reworking and expansion of the earlier work, rather than just a new edition. It reflects the author’s conversion to what he calls ‘the four-category ontology,’ a metaphysical system that takes its inspiration from Aristotle. It provides a unified discussion of individuation and identity that should prove to be essential reading for philosophers working in metaphysics.
