A short, sweet, and selective commentary and analysis of Aristotle's works and ideas. A fine adjunct to the reading of the translated texts. A highly recommended aid to the student meeting Aristotle ab initio. Boy, what a book! --Steven C. Fleishman, University of Maryland
No other work on Aristotle accomplishes so much in such brief compass; its author's care for and knowledge of Aristotle's achievements are evident on every page. --Tom Cunningham, Grand Valley State College
One of the finest critical introductions to Aristotle ever written. Clear, concise, and intelligible. --Religious Studies Review
As an introduction to Aristotle, I find Barnes' book ideal....his book presents the basics in an understandable manner for beginners. --Rose Maries Surwilo, College of St. Francis
There is something here for everyone with a nose for philosophy and its history...Barnes has provided a description which does justice to the grandeur and breadth of its subject. --Sarah Waterlow, Times Literary Supplement
