Aristotle on Knowledge and Learning by David Bronstein

Aristotle on Knowledge and Learning by David Bronstein

David Bronstein sheds new light on Aristotle's Posterior Analytics, one of the most important, and difficult, works in the history of western philosophy. He argues that it is coherently structured around two themes of enduring philosophical interest-knowledge and learning-and goes on to highlight Plato's influence on Aristotle's text.

Aristotle on Knowledge and Learning is a solid achievementIt offers a host of insights into problematic concepts and passages that merit further debate, and a plausible overall account of the work's internal dynamics. For both these reasons, Bronstein's book should become a departure point for future explorations of Aristotle's ever fascinating account of scientific knowledge and its acquisition. * William Wians, Aestimatio *

David Bronstein is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Georgetown University. He was educated in Canada and previously taught at Boston University and the University of Oxford. He is the author of several articles on Aristotle's epistemology and philosophy of science.
