improvement for history 162 final project
This is comment of history 162 by professor, please do some change following teacher’s suggestion.
A good draft, First, I am glad that you picked a single philosopher to work on. But I thought you were going to work on a Presocratic!?! Also Aristotle is a huge topic. Kuhn is NOT a great source for Aristotle. Many people haev worked on Aristotle and do recognize his important influence on 19th century science--but that is not a concern of this course. I recommend that you ignore Kuhn, and just discuss some aspect of Aristotle's work (on classification, the great chain of being or something like that). A good source for the latter would be Lovejoy's Great Chain of Being book:
· Lovejoy, Arthur O. (Arthur Oncken). 2001. The great chain of being: A study of the history of an idea. Cambridge, Mass: Harvard University Press. Link :

If you want to continue with cosmology or biology, then just focus on ONE of them. ***Please submit a new draft addressing my comments.
