Description

Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is a foundational work in ethics and moral philosophy. In this treatise, Aristotle examines the nature of goodness and virtue in human beings, arguing that happiness can only be achieved by living in accordance with the "doctrine of the mean". By balancing excess and deficiency, individuals can cultivate virtues that lead to a fulfilling life. At its core, Nicomachean Ethics is a detailed study of the human condition, exploring what it means to live a good life. Aristotle's ideas on ethics have had a profound impact on Western philosophy, shaping our understanding of morality and the pursuit of happiness. This paperback edition features 128 pages of Aristotle's original text, making it an accessible introduction to his influential work.
