David Botting defends Aristotle as an empiricist against those who see him as a rationalist, focusing on Aristotle's account of how we acquire the first principles of science. The author argues that Aristotle's account is empiricist and that first principles are, perhaps surprisingly, known inferentially and not by intuition.
