Description
Aristotle's philosophy of mind has recently attracted renewed attention and respect from philosophers. This volume brings together essays on "De Anima" by an international group of contributors. The essays form a running commentary on the work, covering such topics as the relation between body and soul, sense-perception, imagination, memory, desire and thought. The authors present the philosophical substance of Aristotle's views to the modern reader. They locate their interpretations firmly within the context of Aristotle's thought as a whole.
