Abstract

Discovering the physics explanation versa Logicos one and Exposing the physics explanation, on the basis of searching suitable answers to four kinds of the "why" question about every natural and industrial thing, enabled Aristotle to found scientific explanation and to manifest its essential characters.
This paper is an effort to reconstruct the way by which this ability could be reached. The final paragraphs of the paper will show that all modern views on scientific explanation (which is divided in two universal approaches of "deductive-nomological" and "inductive-statistical") are some how taken from Aristotle’s doctrine
