<p><i>Reason and Human Good in Aristotle</i> opens up issues of interpretation which are as alive today as when it originally appeared. After almost two decades of extraordinary influence, this succinct book remains a 'must' for any serious bibliography of Aristotle's <i>Ethics</i>. --Sarah Broadie, Princeton University</p>

<p>Cooper's careful and detailed treatment of deliberation and the content of good deliberation brought scholarship on Aristotle's moral philosophy to a new level of sophistication, and his book remains essential reading for anyone who is grappling with Aristotle's complex views about these fundamental issues. --Richard Kraut, Northwestern University</p>

"A sophisticated and illuminating study of central questions about Aristotle's views on practical reason and the ultimate good. Cooper's three chapters . . . examine familiar exegetical puzzles in a fresh and challenging way; but they also . . . raise new and fruitful questions about the philosophical merits and implications of Aristotle's theories. . . . He writes vigorously and lucidly, with both scholarly rigor and philosophical imagination." --T. H. Irwin in Archiv fur Geschichte der Philosophie
