Sobre IBD

The classical conception of reason (or logos) has been repeatedly attacked in the modern era. First published in 1990, this title defends Plato against his accusers. Employing a mode of exposition which exhibits Plato’s position, Roochnik presents the Platonic conception of logos in confrontation with a number of texts.
