| Summary: | "Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics is his most widely studied work, for much of what he has to say is still important for today's debate on the problems of ethics. In this new book, David Bostock presents a critical introduction to this great classic of moral philosophy, guiding the reader through explanations and evaluations of all the main themes of Aristotle's work." "This texts' arguments are summarized, analysed, and assessed succinctly. Each chapter ends with suggestions for further reading on the themes and ideas discussed within the chapter, and the book concludes with an evaluation of the Ethics as a whole. Bostock provides the ideal companion to study of this great work, helping the reader to engage with its ideas and arguments as living philosophy."--BOOK JACKET. |
