The Metaphysics by Aristotle Aristotle (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Metaphysics by Aristotle Aristotle Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The ancient Greek thinker refutes skepticism, demonstrates Gods existence, compares metaphysics to the other sciences, elucidates the nature of the infinite, and explores other major philosophical issues. Publisher Description "All men by nature are actuated with the desire of knowledge," declared Aristotle. The philosophers works are foundational to the history of science, and his treatise on metaphysics, or "first philosophy," is divided into sections of previous philosophical thought and theories; a refutation of skepticism; a demonstration of Gods existence; an examination of the relation of metaphysics to the other sciences; an elucidation of the nature of the infinite; and other major philosophical issues. The central theme consists of an inquiry into how substance may be defined as a category of being. The philosopher describes substance as both formal and material reality, and he discusses the relation between potentiality and actuality. An excellent example of Aristotles dialectical method, which reasons from reliable opinions rather than known truths, this work offers a fine introduction to classical metaphysics.
