Politics (Penguin Classics)

This is a good edition of one of the most important books ever written

This is an informative book- excellent

What can i say other than great!

Very interesting - but a reminder that Aristotle never fully freed himself from Plato's collectivism. Still, full disclosure, I am on Lycophron's side of the argument - I do not believe that the state exists to make people "just and good" or that it is the job of "the legislator" to map out the lives or character of people. I hold that law exists to apply the non aggression principle of justice - hands-off non aggression in terms of the bodies and goods of individuals and voluntary associations, this view is attacked by Aristotle just as Plato attacks it.

It was for a guest from KSA and he is very happy with this book.He is enjoying it and is great full.

Fantastic book!

Great book, quick delivery, many thanks

great value. great service,

An excellent edition of Aristotle's great work, including a thorough study of the writer and his times--the Politics is quite a challenging work, and this is a fine translation of the seminal set of essays.

My son studies political science, hi like a book

I was quite intrigued by Aristotle, and I have never read Aristotle in my life. I decided to read this book after reading another book. I forget which one, but... Aristotle's ideas were quite advanced. Society has changed since his time, and I don't agree with everything he said, but there is much that is still valid. I was especially intrigued by his sections on oligarchy and tyranny, and I am sure that I have been influenced by the situation in India today (April 2021). It's not just India, but we have seen strongmen rise in many countries. The edition I read, is excellent. The translation I have is excellent. I like the notes at the beginning of each chapter. They provide an excellent guide.

As I am a slow reader and this book is too much reach with high level of thoughts I have just finished the Book1 in two months. But it is a real treasure to them who love to think. Should write another review when I'll finish this.

It seems more than presumptuous to me for me to write a review of the work of Aristotle. 2500 years after its production we continue to study it and consider the implications and application of Aristotle's thought. Have at it. It really is a growth experience.
