Jacob Aristotle Orden de los libros (cronológico)
Aristóteles se erige como uno de los filósofos más influyentes de la historia, cuyas obras moldearon el pensamiento occidental a lo largo de los siglos. Su producción abarcó una asombrosa diversidad de temas, desde la lógica y la metafísica hasta la ética, la política y la estética. Su enfoque empírico y su énfasis en la observación, particularmente en biología, sentaron bases cruciales para la investigación científica. El pensamiento aristotélico, complejo y abierto a interpretaciones continuas, sigue generando debate e interés académico, lo que demuestra su perdurable relevancia.

Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, based on lectures that he gave in Athens in the fourth century BCE, is one of the most significant works in moral philosophy, and has profoundly influenced the whole course of subsequent philosophical endeavor. Topics covered include the role of luck in human wellbeing, responsibility, courage, justice, friendship and pleasure. This accessible new translation follows the Greek text closely and also provides a non-Greek reader with something of the flavor of the original. The volume also includes a historical and philosophical introduction and notes on further reading.
Nearly all the works Aristotle (384 322 BCE) prepared for publication are lost; the priceless ones extant are lecture-materials, notes, and memoranda (some are spurious). They can be categorized as practical; logical; physical; metaphysical; on art; other; fragments.
