Description

Elsewhere we have investigated in detail the movement of animals after their various kinds, the differences between them, and the reasons for their particular characters (for some animals fly, some swim, some walk, others move in various other ways); there remains an investigation of the common ground of any sort of animal movement whatsoever.

Author

Aristotle was an influential philosopher and polymath who lived in Ancient Greece. He was a student of Plato and is widely regarded as one of the most important thinkers in history, pioneering the fields of aesthetics, ethics, metaphysics, politics, and science. His works were instrumental in the development of Western thought and have been a major source of inspiration throughout the ages.
