Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, said to be dedicated to Aristotle's son, Nicomachus, is widely regarded as one of the most important works in the history of Western philosophy. Addressing the question of how men should best live, Aristotle's treatise is not a mere philosophical meditation on the subject, but a practical examination that aims to provide a guide for living out its recommendations. The result is a deep inquiry into the nature and means of attaining happiness, which Aristotle defines as consisting not merely of pleasure or an emotional state, but of a virtuous and morally led life. This edition is the translation by W. D. Ross.

Liked the book a lot but some of the terms used in this version not as readily understandable. But well worth the time to listen.

I’d heard of this title and have been listening to much classic literature of late. Mankind has a tenancy to believe that their current grouping of thought is supreme and highest-evolved. This proves otherwise, and is an incredible lens into the spirit of mankind.

Amazing recollection of ancient brilliance

It is truly amazing to discover the length and breadth of knowledge expressed here by Aristotle! It comes as no surprise then, that he would be one of the foremost sources of the philosophical underpinnings of western civilization.

Michael Pritchard did a great job at reading the text of this audiobook.

Amazing!

This audio book saved me! It is read aloud well with an enjoyable tone and speed. I specifically needed this for the first two books of this text, and in this case contrary to another review the first and second books were synchronized with the first and second chapters. I'm very thankful for this audio book!

This book is truly great, a must read. It explains a lot of the philosophical reasoning that has permeated the west’s thinking.

Great introduction to Philosopy

A grammatic, historic and philosophic oasis and home coming.

So, audible makes you submit a minimum number of words for a review...

Excellent!

It's interesting to see how little has changed since antiquity in human thought - or maybe how far we've deviated before returning.

I don't need to praise the original. Whoever is considering reading this has heard Aristotle's genius praised enough.

So instead, I'll talk about the translation a little. There's a particular section in chapter 3, where Aristotle talks about choice. He describes how we can arrive at the point of choosing through deliberation. This word in particular is interesting.

Its root is liberty. Deliberation is the act for reducing our freedoms. We consider our possibilities, and try to figure out what doesn't get us where we want to go, and explore if our hands are forced in some manner, when we deliberate. Then we choose from what remains. I've never thought of this word like this before. Aristotle uses bouleuomai, which roots from "advice" instead of "liberty", so neither could he.

It's worth paying attention to how modern words influence the picture the author tries to paint - I think Ross did a magnificent job with how he uses them, his word choices are worthy of praise on their own!

Also great narration, just throwing it out there.
