Pocket Aristotle by Aristotle

In this extraordinary volume of selections from Aristotle—culled from the monumental Oxford translation by authorities including W.D. Ross, Benjamin Jowett, and Ingram Bywater—editor Justin D. Kaplan has included the most widely read, studied, and quoted works of the great philosopher. Informative notes give the reader a convenient and concise review of each work, illuminating the main ideas. Thoughtfully assembled, The Pocket Aristotle is the essential guide to the man who has often been called the world’s most important thinker.
Aristotle is one of the most widely recognized Greek philosophers of the Classical period. A polymath from Ancient Greece, Aristotle was taught by Plato and is known to be the founder of the Lyceum and Aristotelian tradition.

Justin Kaplan is the author of Mr. Clemens and Mark Twain, which was awarded a Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award, and of Walt Whitman: A Life, which won the American Book Award. He is a member of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters. He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with his wife, novelist Anne Bernays.
