The Nicomachean Ethics

The Nicomachean Ethics is a foundational work in moral philosophy written by Aristotle. In this classic text, Aristotle explores the nature of human virtue, happiness, and the moral character of individuals. Drawing on his observations of human behaviour and the virtues cultivated through practical reasoning, Aristotle delves into the concept of eudaimonia, often translated as "flourishing" or "well-being," as the ultimate goal of human life. The book examines the virtues that contribute to a virtuous and fulfilling life, emphasizing the importance of finding a balance between extremes. Aristotle's insights on ethics remain influential, offering a timeless exploration of human morality and the pursuit of a meaningful existence.
