Nominalism, which has its origins in the Middle Ages and continues
into the Twenty-First Century, is the doctrine that there are no
universals. This book is unique in bringing together essays on the
history of nominalism and essays that present a systematic
discussion of nominalism. It introduces the reader to the
distinction between particulars and universals, to the difficulties
posed by this distinction, and to the main motivations for the
rejection of universals. It also describes the main varieties of
nominalism about properties and provides tools to understand how
they developed in the history of Western Philosophy. All essays are
new and are written by experts on the topic, and they advance the
discussion about nominalism to a new level.
