This book provides the Latin text and its annotated English translation of the question-commentary of John Buridan (ca. 1300-1360) on Aristotle's "On the Soul". Buridan was the most influential Parisian nominalist philosopher of his time. His work speaks across centuries to our modern concerns in the philosophy of mind. This volume completes the project of a volume published earlier in the same series: "Questions on the Soul by John Buridan and Others". An appealing book for scholars of Aristotle and those who are in the field of Medieval philosophy.
