Abstract

This new translation of Aristotle's _Politics_ is a model of accuracy and consistency and fits seamlessly with the translator's _Nicomachean Ethics_, allowing the two to be read together, as Aristotle intended. Sequentially numbered endnotes provide the information most needed at each juncture, while a detailed Index of Terms indicates places where focused discussion of key notions occurs. A general Introduction prepares the reader for the work that lies ahead, explaining what sort of work it is and what sort of evidence it relies on.
