About the book
The Nicomachean Ethics is Aristotle’s study of how to live well, written in the 4th century BCE and probably drawn from his lectures in Athens. Aristotle asks what the chief good of human life is, and answers that it is happiness: a working of the soul in accordance with virtue, which needs complete virtue and a complete life.
