Synopsis

On Generation and Corruption is a philosophical treatise written by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. The book explores the concepts of change, growth, decay, and the nature of matter. Aristotle begins by discussing the four elements (earth, air, fire, and water) and their properties, and how they combine to create different substances. He then examines the process of generation and decay, and how things come into being and pass away. The book also covers the concept of causation, and how things are influenced by their environment and other factors. Aristotle argues that everything in the natural world has a cause and effect relationship, and that understanding these relationships is key to understanding the nature of things. Overall, On Generation and Corruption is a foundational work in the field of natural philosophy, and has had a significant influence on later thinkers in fields such as biology, chemistry, and physics.Further, we are to study growth and 'alteration'. We must inquire what each of them is; and whether 'alteration' is to be identified with coming-to-be, or whether to these different names there correspond two separate processes with distinct natures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
