In his introduction to Aristotle, Hugh Griffith follows the successful pattern established with his An Introduction to Ancient Greek Philosophy: lively introductions explaining the background before generous sections of original text. The two principal works drawn upon are Politics and The Nichomachean Ethics, (topics include marriage, education, government) two treatises which still have a strong effect on thought today. In addition, Griffith inserts three sections from Animals ? for Aristotle was one of the first to codify animals, correctly putting dolphins and whales with mammals rather than fish.
