SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Christian Pfeiffer presents the first full account of Aristotle's theory of bodies, the perceptible, extended, and demarcated substances that are the subject-matter of physical science. He shows that many parts of Aristotle's metaphysics and natural philosophy presuppose a general theory of body.
