Aristotle on Inquiry

Examines how Aristotle's philosophical reflections on scientific knowledge impact his actual scientific inquiries, arguing that he believes in a general, question-guided framework applicable to all scientific inquiries and domain-specific norms reflecting differences in the target of inquiry and in the means of observation available to researchers.
