The past few years have seen a spate of new translations of classic texts in philosophy, in part because of more complete texts on which to base the translations and in part because of a desire to render the texts in a more contemporary English. Simpson (classics and philosophy, CUNY) has produced a fresh and lively translation that is perhaps more logically ordered. He makes a strong case for rearranging the standard order of the books of the Politics to provide a sequence more in keeping with Aristotle's intentions, positioning Books 7 and 8 to follow Book 3. The text begins with a translation of Book 10, Chapter 9 of the Nicomachean Ethics, which Simpson argues is a precursor to the Politics. A comparison with standard translations, such as those of Jowett and Barker, indicates that Simpson put much effort into this version and clarified a number of points that earlier translations left unclear. An excellent addition to all academic and major public libraries.?Terry C. Skeats, Bishop's Univ. Lib., Lennoxville, Quebec

Review
This is an admirable translation, meticulous in its attention to Aristotle's Greek and judicious in its phrasing and choice of terms. It should prove invaluable to beginning students and scholars alike. -- Richard Kraut, Northwestern University --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

評分 評分读罢《理想国》，掩卷思忖，便觉柏拉图笔下苏格拉底辩论之地似在天上。而只需翻开《政治学》第一页，立刻感到亚里士多德双足，踏踏实实踩在地上。 《政治学》全书，处处闪光，时而让人有穿越之感。马基雅维利对好人和好公民的讨论、对君王保全权力之手段的探讨；孟德斯鸠之政体...
評分千万年来，人类从来没有停止过思考，从来没有停止发现探索各式各样的问题，没有停止追寻天地万物的奥秘。从询问山外的天地到探寻宇宙的起源，从发现自我的结构到钻研微粒的能量。我们不断地学习，不断地提问，不断地让自己知道更多的东西。可是有没有思考过，这样做的目的是什...
