This essay needs to be corrected. There is a major historical error. Several times, it is implied that Aristotle's work held back European thought for hundreds of years, up until the seventeenth century. This isn't true. Aristotle's influence was absent from Europe for several of the intervening centuries, only really returning with the influx of ideas from the great Arab philosophers like Averroes.

It's only an opinion, and it's situated in a certain culture and situation.
If you look closer, quite everything needs a 'correction'.
If you want something perfect, humans are the wrong place to search for.
