Description

The reputation of the Nichomachean Ethics is based in large part on three books which in the manuscript traditions are myteriously attributed also to the Eudemian Ethics. Dr. Kenny argues on a varieyt of grounds - ranging from ancient external evidence to computer-assisted statistical study of the text - that the disputed books belong to the Eudemian Ethics and that this has as great a claim as the Nichomacheanto be Aristotle's mature ethical system.
