De Anima (On the Soul)

Description
In De Anima (On the Soul), Aristotle turns his attention to one of philosophy's most enduring questions: what is it that makes a living being alive? Rejecting myth and speculation, he develops a systematic account of the soul as the organising principle of life, examining sensation, perception, memory, imagination and intellect with remarkable precision. His analysis extends from plants and animals to the distinctive capacities of the human mind, laying the foundations for centuries of inquiry into psychology, biology and metaphysics. Combining empirical observation with philosophical argument, De Anima reveals Aristotle at his most original and penetrating. More than two millennia after its composition, it continues to inform debates on consciousness, cognition and the relationship between mind and body, securing its place among the defining works of Western philosophy.
About Aristotle
Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher and scientist, who pioneered many contemporary disciplines. Together with Plato, Aristotle is regarded as a founding figure of Western philosophy. He was born in 384 BCE in Stagira, Chalcidice, Greece. His works have served as the basis for many philosophical movements including Renaissance, Reformation and the Enlightenment. Aristotelian thought also influenced Medieval Islamic philosophy. A lot of jargon, terminology and lexicon in philosophy has been borrowed from Aristotle's work. His intellectual range was extensive and included logic, history, ethics, biology, chemistry, political theory, psychology, metaphysics, philosophy of science, and philosophy of mind. His work remained unsurpassed in zoology until the 19th century. His writings on metaphysics and political theory are still debated in contemporary philosophical and political studies. He died in 322 BCE, in Chalcis, Euboea.
