✅ Summary:

Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle is one of his most influential works on ethics and the nature of a virtuous life. In this book, Aristotle explores the concept of happiness (eudaimonia) as the highest good and ultimate aim of human life, which is achieved through the practice of virtue (areté). He discusses various virtues, such as courage, temperance, and justice, arguing that each virtue lies in a "golden mean" between excess and deficiency. For example, courage is the mean between recklessness and cowardice.

Aristotle distinguishes between intellectual virtues (developed through education) and moral virtues (cultivated through habit). He believes that achieving happiness requires not only personal virtues but also social engagement and relationships with others. Nicomachean Ethics ultimately serves as a guide on how individuals can lead fulfilling lives by developing character and living in harmony with reason.
