Document Summary

Lived before socrates and had different concerns than socrates. Time periods: pre-socratics (600-450 b. c. , socrates (469-399 b. c. , plato (424 - 347 b. c. , aristotle (384-322 b. c. ) Outline of lecture: classification, hierarchy of life, the body and its parts, organs and function. Aristotle: student of plato and he gave us a good picture of what reality was like, he wanted to describe reality as we experienced it with our different senses, he wrote on rhetoric, logic and ethics. He was mainly concerned with animals but he didn"t write about medicine: biological works include parts of animals including anatomy and physiology. Progression of animals deals with move- ment or how animals move: studied nature in the animal world. In these books we find some ideas that are im- portant for medicine: divide the world into animals and non-animals. Inanimate things don"t move by themselves: animate - includes plants because they have the principle of growth, animal - living things.
