paperback. Aristotle's Physics is one of the least studied "great books"--physics has come to mean something entirely different than Aristotle's inquiry into nature, and stereotyped Medieval interpretations have buried the original text. Sach's translation is really the only one that I know of that attempts to take the reader back to the text itself. Series: Masterworks of discovery. Num Pages: 278 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: PH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 229 x 158 x 16. Weight in Grams: 454.
