Dubious[edit]

The article claims:

In particular, Boon sees at work the nominalism of Plato, who introduced the idea of an unchanging and unattainable original in Western philosophy.

However, while I'm not a philosophy expert, judging from the articles it seems to me that Plato espoused philosophical realism in opposition to what came to be called nominalism, which itself seems closer to Boon's position, no? Can anyone verify this claim from Boon's work itself, preferably with a page reference? —KGF0 ( T | C ) 08:52, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
