Review of Aristotle in 90 Minutes

I read Paul Strathern's Aristotle in 90 Minutes. It took me about 70 minutes to make it through, and even those 70 minutes were pretty much a waste. Aristotle was mostly known as a philosopher. The book is a little essay which is just a bit of dubious gossip about the man, with a nod toward some of his writing. Do not read the book if you are interested in Aristotle. Read something else.
