ABSTRACT
M 9-10 (sometimes called Against the Physicists) and the first half of PH 3 are devoted to issues in theology, cosmology, mathematics, and physics. In addition, three of the essays in M 1-6 (3 and 4 on geometry and arithmetic, 5 on astrology) cover similar ground. Such concepts as God, cause, body, place, time, motion and rest, generation and destruction, and change are investigated; the discordant positions of the various Dogmatists are laid out, their inconcinnities noted, their divergences from common sense remarked, all as a means of inducing epochē (the arguments concerning causes have been examined already; and some of the positions of M 3-5 will be considered in Chapter XV).
