Aristotle: De Anima by Aristotle
Christopher Shields presents a new translation of Aristotle's famous work De Anima, together with a comprehensive commentary. While sensitive to philological and textual matters, the commentary addresses itself to the reader who wishes to understand Aristotle's accounts of the soul and body; perception; thinking; action; and living systems.
Students of Aristotle's psychology, especially those primarily interested in Aristotle's hylomorphism and its application to living things and their activities will benefit from studying Shields' volume* Hendrik Lorenz, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *
Shields is to be congratulated for his opus magnum, and we are fortunate to be able to profit from this fruit of deep mastery of Aristotelian philosophy andI am suremany years of hard work. * Klaus Corcilius, Journal of the History of Philosophy *
