It’s slow going through dense stuff, but Jonathan Lear (Aristotle: The Desire to Understand) is a good guide. The Oxford translation's been updated since this 1930s version, but unfortunately there's no fat, cheap one volume edition of it. But Lear's a good guide there too, critiquing both translations and explaining key terms and concepts.

Finally finished this monster of a book. For people interested in philosophy, Aristotle is a must read. I only read one of his works beforehand. I'm glad I got this edition. Kind of lacked notes though. Doesn't have some full books, but at the same time I'm not sure I want the full books. ( )

A collection of the basic works of Aristotle in one volume.

An important book to remind us that we really think the same way as the old timers did! Easier than Plato, more modern than his teacher. The book is well edited and translated by a number of illustrious translators. ( )
