Author(s): Aristotle

Politics & Economics

Aristotle examines government, politics and how societies are run - from households to city states - and establishes how successful constitutions can best be initiated and upheld. A timeless study of politics and society by one of the all-time greatest thinkers. A student of Plato, Aristotle is considered a founding father of philosophy and ethics. This reflection on the role of government, and an individual's role within it, remains as prescient and relevant now as when it was written. One of the most influential books in history, Politics has influenced the greatest thinkers of the last 1,000 years and is a crucial book for those interested in evaluating the way our societies are structured. Part of a boldly designed series of classics, with wider margins for notes, this book is perfect for design-lovers and students alike. With bold, eye-catching graphic covers by Evi O Studio, this collection aims to introduce a selection of the most celebrated works of the last thousand years to a new audience. Featuring tales of adventure, fiction from the 19th and 20th centuries, feminist writings, and reflections on art, politics, philosophy and the origins of man, this is a small, wide-reaching and essential collection. 'Man is naturally a political animal.'
