In the first book, Aristotle describes the economy of a household (which is the original meaning of OIKONOMICS) and then describes different levels of Economy: Private, state level and the kingdom level. In the second book, Aristotle delves deeper into the history of the politicians and rulers raping common folks of their money, lives and wealth. The stories are ugly, but nothing really changed since those days.
