Aristotle's
Metaphysics is an extremely rich and important philosophical work that
continues to inspire reflection and debate. Indeed, no philosophical work has
been more influential.Yet, the Metaphysics is also notoriously
complex.Because the work is an inquiry
that seeks to discover solutions to problems rather than to defend doctrines,
readers often struggle to follow the text and to understand its final
solutions.This book focuses on the
fascinating metaphysical issues that Aristotle is addressing. By working through the text, Halper explains
how these issues arise, how the text engages them, and how it argues for
solutions.Besides showing how to read the
text, Halper aims to help readers reflect on the issues.

Reader's Guide presents a concise and accessible introduction to the text,
offering invaluable guidance on:
- Philosophical context
- Key themes
- Reading
the text
- Reception and influence
- Further reading
