"This book is uniquely relevant for current debates on globalization, income distribution and social welfare. It is of particular interest to readers concerned with contemporary issues in philosophy and political economy." - Leo Michelis, Ryerson University, Canada‘This book is an outstandingly detailed study of Aristotle’s economic thought as it relates to his metaphysics, ethics and politics […] Gallagher puts forward provocative, well-argued ideas and hypotheses through a thorough and methodical analysis of Aristotle’s texts (almost all of them translated from the original Greek by Gallagher himself). […] Gallagher’s book introduces a stimulating approach to Aristotle’s political economy, shedding light on a possible diagnosis and a therapy for current economic problems.’- Ricardo Crespo, Universidad Austral, Argentina, in History of Economic Thought and Policy
