Aristotle's dialogue with Socrates

de Ronna Burger

"What is the good life for a human being? Aristotle's exploration of this question in the Nicomacbean Ethics has established it as a founding work of Western philosophy, though its teachings have long puzzled readers and provoked spirited discussion. Adopting a radically new point of view, Ronna Burger deciphers some of the most perplexing conundrums of this influential treatise by approaching it as Aristotle's dialogue with the Platonic Socrates."--Jacket.
