Product Description -
This book provides a balanced and accessible introduction to Aristotle'sA Nicomachean Ethics. It carefully and comprehensivelyA follows the thread of Aristotlea€s argumentA and sheds light on topics that all too often receive littleA attention or are entirely ignored in the existing textbooks (such as self-control, legislative science and the legislator, the life of theA money-maker, craft-knowledge, comprehension, and beastliness). Its objective is not only to offer an academically reliable presentation of Aristotlea€s Ethics butA to also defend Aristotlea€s main tenetsa€”or, at least, to present them in their most defensibleA form. It places the Nicomachean Ethics within the study of ethics generally students are invited to understand Aristotlea€s claims in the light of, or in contrast to, other ethical theories or their own intuitions about ethical matters. It follows the reader of the Nicomachean Ethics in action, registering questions, expectations and progress within an insightful exegesis of Aristotle's philosophical argument. ItA is replete with pedagogical tools including examples from our concrete everyday experience, paintings, films, and literature,A end of chapter summaries, internet resources, suggestions for further reading, study questions, and essay questions.
