You'll see how each philosopher created a complete and coherent system of thought including their views on ethics metaphysics politics and es thetics. You'll learn about their epistemology-how we know what we know. And you'll learn how each thinker related to his times and to the work of other philosophers over the centuries. the sophisticated complex and subtle ideas of great philosophers are now available in a dramatized format that entertains and informs. Yet, like all Knowledge Products productions, the full substance and content of these ideas are presented in clear and understandable language. Each presentation invites the intelligent listener to ponder the great ideas without struggling through an academic or simplified writing style. Each presentation in is sensitively and intelligently narrated by Charlton Heston one of America's most respected actors. Known for his rich voice and dramatic acting skills Mr. Heston makes your journey through the history of philosophy both compelling and provocative. Aristotle in revising Plato's ideas thought human beings are one with the rest of nature yet set apart from it by their ability to reason. Aristotle codified the laws of thought gave a complete account of nature and of God and developed an attractive view of the good life and the good society. He was the first to systematically describe physics biology psychology and the standards of literature.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good basic introduction for 2.5 hours,
By Yoda (Hadera, Israel) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aristotle: Greece 384-322 B.C. (Audio Cassette)
This audiobook provides a good introduction for 2.5 hours of a reader's time. However, with this much time one can only touch Aristotle. Too short. A proper basic introduction would have needed, at bare minimum, three to four times the time of this tape.
