Aristotle's Way is an exploration of the famous philosopher's work which has been helpfully curated and thematically organised by Professor Edith Hall. I would describe it as a well-being oriented book, that explores themes such as happiness, society and the fulfilment of potential. I really enjoyed the sections that promoted interacting with "the texture of reality", and responding to every situation in a way unique to its own circumstances. There were some great passages about justice, and equality versus equity, and some useful tips about making the most of your leisure time. It's quite amazing to read that man has struggled with very similar issues for so many thousands of years, but the well thought out guidance presented in this book appears to be timeless.

A very interesting book that turn ancient Greek philosophy into advice and lessons for everyday life.
I really enjoyed it, it was well written, and the philosophical part was well researched and clear.
Recommended!
