Apolloni cuts through the fog to make sense of complex and problematic material with a fresh interpretation of his own. This is a solid contribution to Plato scholarship. -- Duane L. Cady, Hamline University\u003cbr\u003eApolloni’s dense and well-documented study of this question in the contemporary secondary literature aims to shows that Plato has a way to avoid embracing self-predication such that it does not threaten the coherence of a theory of separate Forms. Along the way, he offers extensive treatment of the contemporary literature regarding self- predication and related matters. A graduate student wishing for an efficient means of getting up to speed on the main lines of the more than half a century of interpretation generated by Gregory Vlastos’s famous 1954 article would be well served by this book. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction Part I.
