📱 eBook en inglés ON THE SOUL

In On the Soul, Aristotle offers one of the most influential investigations in the history of philosophy: a profound inquiry into life, consciousness, sensation, memory, desire, imagination, and thought. Moving beyond myth and speculation, he examines the soul not as something separate from the body, but as the essential principle that makes a living being alive.
With remarkable clarity and analytical force, Aristotle distinguishes the powers of the soul in plants, animals, and human beings: nutrition, perception, movement, and intellect. His reflections on sight, hearing, touch, imagination, and reason laid the foundations for psychology, biology, metaphysics, and philosophy of mind.
At once scientific and philosophical, ancient and strikingly modern, On the Soul remains a central text for anyone seeking to understand the relationship between body and mind, life and awareness, nature and thought.
A classic of Greek philosophy, this work continues to speak to readers interested in the deepest questions of human existence: what it means to live, to perceive, to think—and to be.

Aristotle (384–322 BCE) was one of the greatest philosophers of ancient Greece and one of the most influential thinkers in Western history. A student of Plato and later the tutor of Alexander the Great, he founded his own school in Athens, the Lyceum.
His writings cover an extraordinary range of subjects, including logic, metaphysics, ethics, politics, rhetoric, poetics, biology, physics, and psychology. Unlike Plato, Aristotle placed strong emphasis on observation, classification, and the study of the natural world.
His works, including Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, Metaphysics, Poetics, and On the Soul, shaped philosophy, science, theology, and education for more than two thousand years.
