Description

This treatise by the ancient Greek philosopher offers a fine introduction to classical metaphysics, a foundational area in the history of science. Aristotle employs the dialectical method, reasoning from reliable opinions rather than known truths, to refute skepticism, demonstrate God's existence, compare metaphysics to the other sciences, elucidate the nature of the infinite, and explore other major philosophical issues.

Author Biography:

Student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great, Aristotle (384-322 BCE) is a giant of Greek philosophy. He made significant contributions to a remarkable range of areas, including logic, metaphysics, mathematics, physics, biology, botany, ethics, politics, agriculture, medicine, dance, and theater. The founder of formal logic and a pioneer in zoology, Aristotle influenced every subsequent scientist and philosopher through his development of the scientific method.
