In this timeless and profound inquiry, Aristotle presents a view of the psyche that avoids the simplifications both of the materialists and those who believe in the soul as something quite distinct from body. On the Soul also includes Aristotle's idiosyncratic and influential account of light and colors. On Memory and Recollection continues the investigation of some of the topics introduced in On the Soul. Sachs's fresh and jargon-free approach to the translation of Aristotle, his lively and insightful introduction, and his notes and glossaries, all bring out the continuing relevance of Aristotle's thought to biological and philosophical questions.

Aristotle lived from 384 to 322 BCE. He was a student of Plato for twenty years, and for the next twenty five years he was one of the most prolific of philosophic writers, as well as a keen biological observer. For almost 2000 years his teachings dominated the centers of learning in Europe and the Middle East. For all those willing to make the effort to follow his arguments, he is still a living thinker of great power.
Joe Sachs has taught for twenty five years at St. John's College, Annapolis Maryland, where from 1990 to 1992 he held the N.E.H. Chair in Ancient Thought. His other translations of Aristotle include Physics (Rutgers University Press), Metaphysics (Green Lion Press), and Nicomachean Ethics (R. Pullins Company).
