What is Understanding Aristotle about?

Virtue is an art that is acquired through practice rather than knowledge. For Aristotle, ethics examines how to live well as humans through moral virtue. Moral virtue is a mean state, guided by practical wisdom, acquired through habit, and done for its own sake. Practical wisdom allows us to reason well about how to act in a given situation. The function of humans is to use our rational soul and live according to reason. Happiness, or eudaimonia, comes from expressing our virtue and living well.
