Description: Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle, C.D.C. Reeve An excellent new translation and commentary. It will serve newcomers as an informative, accessible introduction to the Nicomachean Ethics and to many issues in Aristotles philosophy, but also has much to offer advanced scholars. The commentary is noteworthy for its frequent citations of relevant passages from other works in Aristotles corpus, which often shed new light on the texts. Reeves translation is meticulous: it hits the virtuous mean--accurate and technical, yet readable--between translations vicious extremes of faithlessness and indigestibility.--Jessica Moss, New York University FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description "The Nicomachean Ethics remains the most compelling of all works on the good human life, and readers can now enjoy ready access to it through David Reeves fluent new translation.
