Book
The ethics of Aristotle : the Nicomachean ethics / translated [from the Greek] by J. A. K. Thomson ; introduction and bibliography by Jonathan Barnes.
"Aristotle (384-322 B.C.), probably the greatest teacher who ever lived, surveyed in his Ethics the ends to which conduct should be directed. The importance of this work to a modern reader lies in Aristotle's boldness in introducing psychology into his study of human behaviour. He extended the frontiers of philosophy to include universal science, by converting ethics from a theoretical to a practical science, based on a careful observation of life and a genuine understanding of human nature. The Ethics, the substance of lectures delivered to Aristotle's students, is lucidly translated for the Penguin Classics by J. A. K. Thomson."-- back cover.
