Routledge Philosophy GuideBook to Aristotle and the Metaphysics cover

Aristotles' 'Metaphysics' is one of the most important texts in Ancient Philosophy. This GuideBook looks at the Metaphysics thematically and takes the student through the main arguments found in the text. The book introduces and assesses Aristotle's life and the background to the Metaphysics, the ideas and text of the Metaphysics and Aristotle's philosophical legacy.

"Politis writes exceedingly clearly, formulates exactly, draws parallel with other relevant passages from Aristotle's work...as well as with contemporary authors like Quine or Putnam. Moreover, this introduction is a very pleasant read, not only for students but also for lecturers."

Rico Sneller, Tijdschrift voor Filosofie (Journal of Philosohy, Holland)

"an engaging, thought-provoking, coherent interpretation of Aristotle's metaphysical writings..."
