The Canadian Philosophy Show #628

A discussion of the differences between Plato's theory of forms and Aristotle's rejection of the forms in favor of a more nuanced approach. This show also investigates the history of mathematics as a subset of the history of western philosophy in order to create the observation that both the Platonic and Aristotelian models of reality have strongly shaped Western Philosophy.
