What is Ask Aristotle?

Ask Aristotle is a book, a community, and a project.

The book applies ancient wisdom to modern life. Aristotle is one of history’s most important thinkers. But most of his published works were lost to fires, floods, and wars. All that remain are rough drafts and lecture notes, which are notoriously hard to read. Ask Aristotle uses non-technical language to apply Aristotle’s ideas to life in the internet age. It’s a thought-provoking and fun introduction to the mind of a master.

The community is dedicated to making wise decisions about how to spend their time, effort, money, and life as a whole. They’re tired of reading self-help books in search of fulfillment, and they’re tired of fakers who pretend to know what’ll help them live well. 

The project aims at helping people on their quest to live better, to make better decisions, to be better parents, partners, and business people, and to grow in knowledge and understanding. It includes: 

• tools to clarify what you need to flourish in life; 

• tools to evaluate how you think, feel, and act, so you can get the things in life worth getting; 

• tools to make better decisions about how to spend your time, money, and effort; 

• tools to spot fakes and separate information from misinformation in books, in the news, in movies, on television, or online.
