Description: Simplicius: On Aristotle Physics 8.6-10 Author: Sorabji, Richard (editor); McKirahan, Richard (translator) Title: Simplicius: On Aristotle Physics 8.6-10 Publication: Bristol Classical Press Description: Hardcover. Used - Very Good / Good. Aristotle's Physics is about the causes of motion and culminates in a proof that God is needed as the ultimate cause of motion. Aristotle argues that things in motion need to be moved by something other than themselves - he rejects Plato's self-movers. On pain of regress, there must be an unmoved mover. If this unmoved mover is to cause motion eternally, it needs infinite power. It cannot, then, be a body, since bodies, being of finite size, cannot house infinite power. The unmoved mover is therefore an incorporeal God. Seller ID: 214257 Subject: Religion/Philosophy/Spirituality Atlanta's only in-town, full-service bookstore since 1989.
