What Is The Purpose of Life?: Aristotle's Ethics

In this second session of our philosophy series, we will look to Aristotle (384 B.C.), one of the greats in philosophy and the first scientist in history. We will explore what Aristotle meant when he said that, "Happiness is the meaning and purpose of life, the whole aim, and end of human existence".

- Can it really bring the fulfillment we are looking for individually and as a society?

- What difference would it make to our lives if we took a leaf out of Aristotle's book?
