In this book, Kevin M. Cherry compares the views of Aristotle and Plato about the practice, study and, above all, the purpose of politics. In the first book to place Aristotle's Politics in sustained dialogue with Plato's Statesman, Cherry argues that their different political philosophies reflect different understandings of how human beings relate to the natural world around them.
