  Gad Freudenthal offers an original new account of one of the most influential of ancient philosophical and scientific doctrines, Aristotle's theory of material substance. On the basis of a scholarly re-examination of Aristotle's writings Freudenthal argues that his concept of heat is crucial to his understanding of the relationship between matter and form, body and soul.
