Omslag till Edith Hall: Aristotle s Way (ePUB)

Wonderful and timely Hugely recommended STEPHEN FRYWhat do you and an ancient philosopher have in common? It turns out much more than you might think Aristotle was an extraordinary thinker yet he was preoccupied by an ordinary question: how to be happy. In this handbook to his timeless teachings, Professor Edith Hall shows how ancient thinking is precisely what we need today, even if you don t know your Odyssey from your Iliad. In ten practical lessons you can learn how to make good decisions, how to ace an interview, how to choose a partner and how to face death. This is advice that won t go out of fashion. A beguiling cross between Mary Beard and Mary Poppins Observer
