Biography

Zeno of Elea was a greek philosopher who lived from 490-430 B.C. He was in Parmenides class and was recalled to have been Parmenides' favorite student. Later, Parmenides adopted Zeno because he liked him so much and thought that his paradoxes were amazing. It was said that he published a book on his paradox's. This book fails to exist today but it is also highly unlikely that he ever published more than one. The book that he published was said to have had 40 paradox's in it. Out of the 40, only four of them really stand out today and involve the study of motion and mathematics. Out of these distinct four there is one that is really confusing but at the same time stands out from the rest. Zeno's first paradox, the arrow.Zeno's second paradox, the problem of the heap. Zeno's third paradox, collumn marching. Zeno's fourth paradox, Achilles and the Tortoise.
