Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the nature of composite objects, the book delves into the concepts of composition and persistence, questioning the criteria that allow smaller entities to form larger ones and how these larger entities endure over time. It introduces a novel methodological perspective to distinguish between genuine metaphysical disagreements and mere semantic differences, aiming to clarify the complexities surrounding these philosophical inquiries.
