This work is, for the most part, a rigorously reasoned and precisely articulated interconnected series of conceptual analyses, the primary purpose of which is to demolish the essentialistic thesis of much of philosophy since the time of Plato (the thesis that concepts are defective and perhaps not even concepts at all if they are not closed, i.e., not definable in terms of necessary and sufficient conditions). (from a review by Tad S. Clements, 1980). Hardcover in Fine condition in a very good-plus dust jacket, 8vo, pages: xii,279. Black cloth with spine titles in gold, red end-papers, bibliography, index. First edition. Very light wear to dust jacket spine head, two thin abrasions to spine (see photo). Bookseller accession no.: 23376.

Store description
I am a bookseller specializing in Natural History and Literature, although with a wide range of interests and a wide-ranging inventory. Having recently (2021) moved from Massachusetts, I have opened a brick-and-mortar bookshop in the town of Ulysses (near Trumansburg), New York; see "Ulyssesbookstore.com" for information. I am a proud member of Independent Online Bookseller Association (IOBA).
