Aristotle: Form and Matter Edification offers an in-depth exploration of Aristotle's central metaphysical concepts. This scholarly work meticulously reconstructs Aristotle's theories, presenting them through the rigorous lens of analytic geometry and metaphysics. Fortin successfully bridges ancient philosophical thought with modern scientific inquiry, making complex ideas accessible and relevant for contemporary scholars.

In this treatise, Fortin delves into the intricate relationship between form and matter, which lies at the heart of Aristotelian ontology. He thoroughly examines Aristotle's notions of substance, expanse, and quantity, elucidating how these foundational principles underpin existence and change. The text traverses various dimensions of being, from the indivisible unity of numbers to the tangible perceptions of visual and auditory experiences, offering a comprehensive understanding of Aristotle's enduring impact on both ancient and modern science and philosophy.

Fortin's focus on the dynamic nature of human intellect underscores the timeless relevance of Aristotelian thought. Aristotle: Form and Matter Edification is an essential read for serious students of philosophy and science, providing a rigorous and thoughtful analysis of Aristotle's work. This volume not only pays homage to Aristotle's intellectual legacy but also invites readers to engage with the perennial questions of existence, substance, and the nature of reality.
