Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take

Aristotelian Naturalism

Martin Hähnel · 2020
68/100
👎 Skip It

A serious scholarly contribution to the Neo-Aristotelian revival in ethics, with strong names in the field represented and a well-organized structure that covers the terrain from foundational standpoints to contemporary debates. This is rigorous, specialist work that belongs in academic philosophy libraries — but it offers essentially nothing to anyone outside that context. Worth it for the right graduate seminar; a non-starter otherwise.
