Book excerpt: Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy provides, twice each year, a collection of the best current work in the field of ancient philosophy. Each volume features original essays that contribute to an understanding of a wide range of themes and problems in all periods of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, from the beginnings to the threshold of the Middle Ages. From its first volume in 1983, OSAP has been a highly influential venue for work in the field and has often featured essays of substantial length as well as critical essays on books of distinctive importance. Volume LX contains an examination of how in Parmenides' poem what-is is constrained by justice; the way that forms are interrelated and indeed changed in Plato's Sophist; his conception of perception in the Timaeus; Aristotle's conception of substance and its relation to accidents in the Categories; a semantic argument of Epicurus in his On Nature 25 and how our preconception of causation is based on the awareness of our own agency; and a book review essay focused on the ontology of boundaries in Aristotle.
