The Physics. Writings on Natural Philosophy (Concise Edition) by Aristotle
One of Aristotle's great works, The Physics is an investigation into the nature of being, of the world and its place in the universe. Although philosophically much broader, it provides the foundation for the later work of Galileo, Isaac Newton, and prefigures Albert Einstein's breakthrough theories on time, space and the motion of stars.Aristotle (384–322 BCE) was a philosopher and writer from the Classical period in Ancient Greece. His work provides the intellectual methodology of most European-centred civilization, influencing the fundamental forms of all knowledge. Taught by Plato he went to to write about many subjects including physics, biology, zoology, philosophy, politics, government and the arts.
