As Sellars says in this delightful little book, we should all aspire to know at least something about Aristotle's ideas and how they have shaped the way we think. I know he lived over two thousand years ago, but given just how much the greatest philosopher in history has influenced almost every aspect of human thought to this day, I fully agree. And this book does that job admirably. Jim Al-Khalili
