In this classic text, Aristotle extols a variety of virtues valued by the ancient Greeks and their world. Within, Aristotle gives the reader a schema for understanding both ancient and trans-historical ideas on virtue and relating well to others. His vocabulary and concepts regularly pop up in other works, up to contemporary times; thus, grappling with Nicomachean Ethics makes those other works more understandable. Standing alongside and thinking with Aristotle increases one's ability to discern and decide on right action. As with other philosophical works, be ready to accept befuddlement from time to time, and talk with others about your gleanings as you read (and read again). Also, it is not necessary to agree with all of his conclusions to be aided by his exposition; you may find that you comprehend humans quite a bit better.

This revised translation of Aristotle's classic treatise contains ten books based on the famous doctrine of the golden mean which advocates taking the middle course between excess and deficiency. Topics that Aristotle treats include the good for humanity, moral virtue, intellectual virtue,
pleasure, friendship, and happiness.

The Nicomachean Ethics

Nearly all the works Aristotle (384-322 BCE) prepared for publication are lost; the priceless ones extant are lecture-materials, notes, and memoranda (some are spurious). They can be categorized as practical; logical; physical; metaphysical; on art; other; fragments.
