The readability of this text provides an excellent foundation for a conversation on virtue, what it entails and what virtues should be considered desirable in an individual. This allows for easily tracking the flow of Aristotle’s argument. As such, the topical outline is focused on organizing the book in line with the different virtues being discussed. Nicomachean Ethics contains Aristotle’s classic definition of virtue and his list of the virtues critical to making one the best person possible.

Though Aristotle did not title books and chapters, this edition provides not only a table of contents for where each of the books stops and starts, but also a topical outline. This particular version of the Ethics is both comprehensible and easy to follow.
