OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS Physics : Aristotle: desertcart.ae: Books Review: This is the best edition if you're not an expert and looking to learn more about the Physics. Why? 1 -- It has a really good, clearly-written, comprehensive introduction that covers all the main points in the book. 2 -- It has fantastic endnotes which clarify particular passages in the book. Basically I found that whenever I was reading along and I didn't understand something, there was an endnote written for that passage which made it more clear. 3 -- The translation itself, like all Waterfield translations I've seen, really tries for maximal readability and clarity, and flows as well as it can given the subject matter. If you're looking to study the Physics for the first time, no question this is the edition to go with. Review: Aristotle unlike Plato, kept his feet on the ground. Plato an aristocratic mystic no doubt schooled his pupil well but obviously he had his own ideas even if most are not taken seriously nowadays, but he reigned a long time. This version has a brilliant and scholarly introduction and study guide by David Bostock which is worth the price of admission in itself. Aristotle doesn't read easy, but so what. We have brains, that we only need to kick in.

Good for those who are actually studying Philosophy because to understand it well you will definitely need a mentor or a peofessor.
