Description
Anthony Kenny presents a fresh view of Aristotle
Reviews
`it is an important contribution, especially to the explication of a difficult but important text, the Eudemian Ethics ... he once again deserves thanks both for his vigorous scepticism and for his forthright discussion of such basic issues' Bryn Mawr Classical Review 4.1(1993)
'Kenny's study will occupy a prominent position in the current flood of books on Aristotle's ethics. It warrants attention simply for its careful assessment of current scholarship. Highly recommended.' J. Bussanich, University of New Mexico, Choice, Apr '93
'Kenny presents the standard intellectualist line' Journal of the History of Philosophy
'a further salvo in Anthony Kenny's campaign to induce ancient philosophers to pay proper attention to the Eudemian as well as the Nicomachean Ethics' M.B. Trapp, King's College, The Classical Review, Vol. XLIII, No. 2, 1993
'I believe that no interpreter of Aristotle's moral philosophy can ignore Kenny's book ... one will think harder and better than one would without the challenge of his arguments. In one way or another this work teaches us a great deal, as do all of Kenny's writings.' Timothy D. Roche, Memphis State University, Mind, Vol. 103, No. 410, April 1994
'The eight essays are extremely learned, and there is much judicious commentary on the writings of contemporary commentators.' Dorothy Mitchell, La Trobe University, Australasian Journal of Philosophy
