GRIFFITH, H.: Aristotle - An Introduction (Unabridged)
No thinker has had a more profound influence on western civilisation than Aristotle. Whether we realise it or not, his work has been one of the main props of our culture for over two thousand years. Underlying all of it is a conviction that system and order can be found to govern everything, even human conduct. In the Ethics and Politics, Aristotle examines what is the best kind of life, and what is the best kind of society for making this possible.
