General Information
===================
Title: Aristotle For Everybody(Difficult Thought Made Easy)
Author: Mortimer J. Adler
Read By: Frederick Davidson
Book Description
================
In Aristotle for Everybody, Adler sets forth the truths he has learned
from Aristotle, stating and explaining them in a manner that is
intended to make them easily understood by everyone.
Because Aristotle's wisdom and philosophical insights are grounded in
the common experience we all possess, and because they illuminate and
enrich the common sense we all rely on, this easy-to-listen-to
exposition of his thought about the world of nature, about the actions
and productions of man, and about the conduct of life, confirms
convictions that most of us hold, though we may not always be fully
aware of them. Philosophy, Adler maintains, is everybody's business.
It deepens our understanding of the knowledge we already have about
ourselves, our society, and the world in which we live. Adler thinks
that all of us have a human obligation to engage in this effort of
understanding and that, with the proper guidance, we will derive great
satisfaction from our success in doing it. No better guide than
Aristotle can be found.
