The student of Plato and tutor of Alexander the Great, whose vast body of work ranges across logic, biology, ethics, politics, physics, and poetics, laying the groundwork for entire fields of study. More than perhaps any other thinker, he shaped how the Western world reasons and classifies knowledge, and his authority dominated philosophy and science for nearly two thousand years.
