Physics

by Aristotle Narrated by Bruce Lieberman

Overview

For many centuries, Aristotle's Physics was the essential starting point for anyone who wished to study the natural sciences. Aristotle deals with many abstract ideas in this book, examining the phenomenon of being, space, motion, matter, time, infinity, magnitude, and more. This book is basically an explanation on how the universe works--as Aristotle understood it. It's not so much a straight forward philosophical text as it is a sort of compendium of problems that philosophers have spent the past several millenniums trying to figure out. As a book of philosophy, it seems more concerned with creating a system where these sorts of questions can be fully articulated and worked on than it is in fully solving any of them.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"Exceptionally well done. Fine orientation to the work. Excellent set of references."—Brian Dybowski, College of Santa Fe

"Excellent translation—useful for contemporary students with no grasp of Greek and little patience with archais English."—Morton Schagrin, SUNY Fredonia

"This is a very good book. It is clearly written, yet at the same time it is still of high scholarly value."—Stephen Joseph, Framingham State College
