Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics Bk 8 - Breakdowns and Disagreements In Friendships - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher Aristotle's work of moral theory, the Nicomachean Ethics. Specifically it focuses on his discussion in book 8 bearing upon how and why friendships of various sorts break down over time. Friendships based upon virtue or moral excellence tend to be much more enduring and resilient than friendships that are based primarily upon pleasure or usefulness.
