The Problemata Physica is a collection of thirty-eight books attributed to Aristotle in the manuscript tradition. Overall, this collection contains almost nine hundred chapters (or ‘problemata’) in the question-answer format, which cover a wide range of scientific and philosophical subjects. Many contributions contained in this volume have the merit of filling big gaps in the investigation of the pseudo-Aristotelian Problemata.
