3 Reddit comments about Teleology, First Principles, and Scientific Method in Aristotle's Biology (Oxford Aristotle Studies Series):

>I honestly find it unnecessary to be so hostile towards this. It's unfair to assume his Aristotle scholarship is affected by his support for Rand.

A reading of the preface to his new Aristotle book would indicate otherwise. It's almost like he can't stop talking about her. As I mentioned in another post, he said in an interview that Rand's "epistemology workshop," which he attended, was "the equivalent of having Aristotle in the room." Is this the sign of a philosopher of sound mind?

I wish I could find the .pdf of the paper, but in all honesty he didn't go much more in depth than Lennox's article on SEP article.

I believe, the essay itself ended up in this book, but I am honestly not sure. It was something he had unpublished but was travelling and lecturing with for some time.

>You are severely overstating Rand's stature.

Well, you're certainly welcome to (try to) defend your (false) assertion with any (supposed) facts you can muster....

Good luck with that. :-)

Meanwhile, this volume, edited by a leading Aristotle scholar at the #3-ranked philosophy department in the world (source), just dropped, so there's that.
