Is the purpose of life happiness, and if so, how can we achieve it? Written nearly 2,500 years ago, Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is as relevant today as it's ever been. Michael Knowles is joined by Professor Charles Kessler to discuss this seminal work exploring the age-old question of how to live a happy and meaningful life. As it turns out, Aristotle’s recipe for the good life has not grown stale.

I dunno you guys but I am here since the first episode of The Book Club back in 2019 or so and this is, *BY FAR,* my favorite PragerU show and one of my favorite shows overall.
Knowles really reads minds, I can not think of a single book he reviewed that is not worth to be in ANY respectable personal library nowadays. You are a jewel and this show is a jewel.
Mad respect from Canada 🇨🇦
For your next book club you should have Jordan Peterson on to talk about the Gulag Archipelago.
Civilization building knowledge like this is fascinating, not boring!
Already agree. I enjoy not having to remember lies or know what the culture expects of me, i just treat others well and get on with my day. Feels fine, sleep is great. Not medicated. People are envious of me for no real reason. That part actually sucks cause they seek a hit of pleasure possibly at my expense, but their issues are not my problem if i avoid them. Which I'm happy to do 😂
The book is currently winging it's way to me as we speak. I'm just here getting a pre-read heads-up on what to expect.
I truly enjoy the book club discussions. Thank you, gentlemen, for reading, understanding, and sharing Aristotle's masterpiece! 👏👏👏
Thanks for the reminder...read this too many years ago. Good timing at Thanksgiving.
Oooooooh baby. More of these.
Good - true & the beautiful
Bonum, pulchrum, trivium
My school is literally called “Trivium Prep - Great Hearts Schools” and hat you said is literally our school motto lolol (it's a charter school).
God bless and be with you :DDD! ✝️

Thank you both that was a great book review.
Thank you
Excellense is never an accident. It is the wise choice of many alternatives. Its choice, not chance that determines your destiny - Aristitotle. Dont remember which one. There are differnt ones related to our choices. But it might have been this one or «on the soul». And the word «virtue» in his time could also mean «excellense» in his time. We know Plato referred to excellense in the same word for virtue

I guess we'll see how many people on youtube have this book.
The reason people don't have friends is because they're awful. If you have to create a pity party to socialize you're probably a nightmare to know.
Exactly because nacho man ethics
I love Harry Stottlemeier.

More of these please!!
Aristotle said that "a good life" was the goal, not happiness.
These are synonymous in Aristotle. Living well is nothing other than eudaimonia, happiness, understood in the qualified Aristotelian sense.

People online are personas not friends. You will never know the true them. Try moving in with your best chat buddy and find out real quick how much you can't stand eachother 😂
Surprisingly good video by PragerU. Man, I wonder what kind of political and economic beliefs they advocate. Surely it would be ones that would promote ensure developing material conditions to the best of society's abilities since material needs are recognized in this video as an important prerequisite. Surely one that would promote social cohesion and friendship among people as well. Surely they would support a system taht is based on looking towards the greater good and not one that relies on divisive individualism which was recognized as a danger in this video.

The Left is more interested in investigating if Aristotle was too white and therefore rayciiiiiiiisssst and "supremacist" LOL lol 😂 😂

There is a need here to get the foundation right, because sadly one is building on sand otherwise. Here it is:
'Then an official asked Jesus, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" "Why do you call me good?" Jesus asked him. "Nobody is good except for God"'.
Did you get it? "Nobody is good except for God". That's where Aristotle should have started. That's where the discussion should have started.
Ah yes, Aristotle, the destroyer of Christianity. Not a very good idea to promote such a pernicious fellow.
Come on. Aristotle long preceded Christianity. Many of the Church Fathers and later theologians valued Aristotelian ethics as they preserved Greek philosophy and integrated it with Christian belief.
@@RYwoodview "Substituted" is the better word. That's scholasticism, and people like Thomas Aquinas exacerbated the matter, turning Christianity into a structural mess of the habitus/actus fidei combination.
