This is a brief, accessible introduction to the thought of the philosopher John Buridan. Klima argues that many of Buridan's academic concerns are strikingly similar to those of modern philosophy and his work sometimes quite directly addresses modern philosophical questions.
Gyula Klima is a Professor of Philosophy at Fordham University.
