I. Litzinger, St. Thomas Aquinas St. Augustines Dumb Ox Books, 1993 Another Great Text from Dumb Ox As with the other commentaries from Dumb Ox Books, this text contains both the original text from Aristotle, and Aquinas' comments.

Pullins Company, 2002 Exceptional translation, excellent introduction I've read and taught the Nicomachean Ethics several times in translation, and working through it this time with Joe Sachs' exceptional translation is what for the first time brought the urgency and interest of the text alive for me.
