What does it mean to live a good life? How can we accomplish it? For more than two thousand years, Western civilization has looked to Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics (hachettebookgroupusdistribution.com/titles/ari…) to help answer those questions. In this episode, Jacke talks to translator Robin Waterfield and scholar John Sellars about their new edition of Aristotle's classic text (hachettebookgroupusdistribution.com/titles/ari…). PLUS Daniel Olivas (Chicano Frankenstein (forestavenuepress.com/bookshop/p/chicano-frank…), Waiting for Godínez (unmpress.com/9780826368447/waiting-for-godinez)) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.
