The Metaphysics : Aristotle: desertcart.ae: Books Review: This is undeniably a classic of profound significance. Criticizing this work feels almost sacrilegious, given its enduring intellectual value. However, it must be acknowledged that this masterpiece can be an intellectual Everest to conquer. Its intricate concepts and intricate reasoning make it a challenging read, demanding profound contemplation to fully grasp. Nevertheless, this is the very essence of its brilliance. Aristotle's exploration of the nature of reality and existence is an intellectual journey like no other, a testament to his unmatched genius. I extend my gratitude to desertcart for providing access to this book. Review: Translation is very obtuse, rendering an already difficult even more so. Furthermore, this edition lacks notes completely, stranding you alone with the behemothian tome handicapped by a dated translation.
