Description

Aristotle's Physics is a foundational work in the natural sciences, exploring concepts such as matter and form, explanation, and teleological reasoning. The book delves into intricate discussions of infinity, place, void, time, and continuity, ultimately arguing for a single unchanging cause of all change: God. This translation presents Aristotle's thought with clarity and accuracy, while simplifying the original text's often complex style. A lucid introduction and extensive notes provide context and shed light on specific problems, making it easier to understand this influential work. First published in 2008, this edition offers a valuable insight into one of the most important philosophical texts of all time, providing a wealth of information for scholars and students alike.
