The subject of Aristotle's On the Heavens, Books 3-4, is the four
elements of earth, air, fire and water, which exist below the
heavens. Book 3, in chapters 1 to 7, frequently criticizes the
Presocratic philosophers. Because of this, Simplicius' commentary
is one of our main sources of quotations of the Presocratics. Ian
Mueller's translation of this commentary gains added importance by
enabling us to see the context which guided Simplicius' selection
of Presocratic texts to quote. Simplicius also criticizes the lost
commentary of the leading Aristotelian commentator, Alexander, and
thereby gives us important information about that work. The English
translation in this volume is accompanied by a detailed
introduction, extensive commentary notes and a bibliography.
