St. Augustine's Press

A key introduction to Aristotle, emphasizing the importance of his biological
thinking to the study of his thought. Written for students and the general
reader with little prior knowledge of Aristotle, this edition features a new preface
by Professor Grene.

“Marjorie Grene’s Aristotle is deeply engaged in the world around him, struggling
to understand problems that are still of concern to us today. Her analysis
reveals the continuing importance of Aristotle’s work.” – Robert Perlman

“As an introduction, the book is one of the best that I have read, clear, without
jargon, and successful in its aim.” – W. K. C. Guthrie, Cambridge Review

“[A] fresh and interesting book . . . Identifies a very important aspect of
Aristotle’s work, and explains it admirably.” – D. J. Furley, Classical Review
