    • Summary:This volume dispels the idea that Platonism was an otherworldly enterprise which neglected thestudy of the natural world. Leading scholars examine how the Platonists of late antiquity sought to understand and explain natural phenomena: their essays offer a new understanding of the metaphysics of Platonism, and its place in the history of science.
