 Many, many infinite regress arguments have been given throughout the history of philosophy, and we will not attempt here to survey even the most important of them. Rather, the aim will be to shed light on the kinds of regress argument that may be encountered, and the different considerations that arise in different cases. As we proceed, however, we will see some particularly famous regress arguments as examples. (Rescher 2010 and Wieland 2014 survey some historical  regresses.)[2]
