Abstract
Philosopher Stephen Toulmin concludes his discussion of the contrasting origins of philosophy, focusing here on Aristotle. Professor Toulmin notes that Aristotle had grown up in a medical family and was more impressed by the pragmatic underpinnings of enterprises like medicine than by the formal elegance of geometry or astronomy, which he viewed as overly theoretical and abstract.
