"Two thousand years ago, Aristotle’s “Physics” was a wide-ranging set of theories that were easy to state and understand."
I'm having a hard time imagining that anyone comes away from just having read Aristotle with the impression that his work is easy to state and understand. Science is great, but let's shed ourselves of the need to belittle other disciplines in order to make our own accomplishments seem more grand.
