Alexander Verlinsky's research concerns problematic aspects of Plato's, Aristotle's, and Epicurus's views about the origin and growth of human culture. He contends that Plato and Aristotle have much to say on the character of evolution itself, and that Epicurus's views on the subject have not been thoroughly compared with those of his antagonistic predecessors.
