| Summary |
Aristotle's philosophy of nature is examined in the light of the recent argument that he regarded the natural world, and its study, as having a clear structure. Professor Falcon argues that Aristotle, though systematic, recognized the limitations of natural science and claimed that the natural world exhibits unity without uniformity. |
