Reviews
'Sean Kelsey asks important questions about Aristotle's views on the fit between the mind or soul and the world. How are humans knowers and perceivers? How is the world knowable and perceivable? The proposed answers shed new light on the De Anima and on the methods Aristotle uses to pursue these questions.' James Warren, University of Cambridge
'Nearly all of Aristotle is hard. But the ideas and texts at the heart of this book are some of the hard hards. I learned much reading it. This book is a worthy addition to the growing literature on Aristotle's De Anima.' Evan Keeling, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
