Appendix B
1. Some translators convey this idea by using the word “social”
instead of “political.” In either case, the aim is to convey that human
beings—by their nature and, more specifically, because they have the
capacity for complex communication through language—naturally
tend to live in groups. This enables them to perform activities and live
lives that would be impossible for them as individuals, because individ-
ual human beings are not self-sufficient. See Fred Miller, “Aristotle’s
Political Theory,” in The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, ed.
Edward N. Zalta, Fall 2012 edition, http://plato.stanford.edu/archives/

Human Beings Need the Virtues (Chicago: Open Court Press, 1999), 55.
