42Aristotle's philosophical methodIn Christopher John Shields (ed.), The Oxford Handbook of Aristotle, Oxford University Press Usa. pp. 150. 2012.A problem is posed: Is pleasure choiceworthy, or not? The answerer claims that yes, it is. The questioner must refute him by asking questions—by offering him premises to accept or reject.

247Practices of reason: Aristotle's Nicomachean ethicsOxford University Press. 1992.This book is an exploration of the epistemological, metaphysical, and psychological foundations of the Nicomachean Ethics. In a striking reversal of current orthodoxy, Reeve argues that scientific knowledge (episteme) is possible in ethics, that dialectic and understanding (nous) play essentially the same role in ethics as in an Aristotelian science, and that the distinctive role of practical wisdom (phronesis) is to use the knowledge of universals provided by science, dialectic, and understandi…Read more
