Happy Lives and the Highest Good - An Essay on Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" - Paperback - 2005

Presents an approach to a debate about Aristotles Nicomachean Ethics: whether it coherently argues that the best life for humans is one devoted to a single activity, namely philosophical contemplation.
