Aristotle for Everybody: Difficult Thought Made Easy [Adler, Mortimer J.] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Aristotle for Everybody: Difficult Thought Made Easy

Review: Aristotle's thoughts about Knowledge, Happiness, Justice and Art - I bought this book mainly because I was interested in Aristotle's view on happiness and good life. These subjects are treated in part III of this book. I think Mr Adler managed to clearly explain ideas that Aristotle had on universal human needs, their hierarchy and means for a good life. I also liked Part IV where Mr Adler talks about knowledge, truth, its levels and the ways of establishing it. I think this is a very important subject for ability to think critically and which is often overlooked in secondary schools (and even in colleges). I liked the three directions that human mind can take explained in chapter 3 - human as a Maker who deals with Art, human as a Doer who deals with Justice and human as a Knower who deals with Truth. This is a helpful way to group the multitude of activities that a person can do today. As always, Mr Adler has a very clear way of writing, making his main terms, paragraphs and chapters very understandable.
Review: A good introduction to Aristotle - This was one of the books required for my Engineering Ethics class when I was in school. Thankfully, it is not as dense as a philosophy book would be, but it does distill Aristotle's teachings into very easily digestible parts. The book is pretty short (at least when compared to a textbook), just under 200 pages, and while I would not say it is as quick a read as a novel, it is not so dense that it takes a long time to get through. I think many people will get the book because it is required for a class, but it is something that someone who is just interested in philosophy without getting too bogged down in the material could enjoy reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very accessible introduction to a very important thinker
*by M***I on August 2, 2009*

Adler's introduction to Aristotle is a must read for anyone interested in beginning to appreciate one of the most influential thinkers of all time. This is written for the general public, and it succeeds marvelously at what it sets out to do (although, for those wanting go deeper, the author includes a second table of contents at the end, with detailed references to original sources). The book covers the major aspects of Aristotle's thought, from his understanding of causality to his ethics, from his discussions of what it means to lead a good life to his concept of god. I found the organization of the book in broad sections, each further subdivided into bite size chapters, very easy on the reader, as it should be. Inevitably, different people will find different parts of the book more engaging than others. In my case I have a preference for Adler's discussion of Aristotle's four causes (early in the book) and how it explains the philosopher's thinking about god as prime mover of the universe (later in the volume). Particularly insightful is Adler's discussion of the difference between the Aristotelian and the Christian conceptions of god. The author strove to avoid technical language, which is admirable in this sort of books. Still, I wish he had left in a few particularly useful Greek words, especially "eudaimonia" (which simply does not translate to the English "happiness") and "akrasia" (weakness of the will). Regardless, a very good choice to get your feet wet in the area of ancient Greek philosophy, or indeed of philosophy more generally.
