Ross' 1941, available in Jonathan Barnes' Complete Works, and Hugh Tredennick's 1933 for the Loeb Classical Library. Several English translations of the whole Metaphysics are already available. Fourth, to show the merits of Reeve's approach, I comment in detail on his translation and discussion of Metaphysics Zeta. Third, I discuss the character of Reeve's notes, which are the primary apparatus he uses to guide us through the Metaphysics in his translation. Second, I describe the structure and content of Reeve's version. In this review, first, I mention some existing English translations of Aristotle's Metaphysics. Reeve manages the competing demands of these two audiences well, particularly when it comes to the translation. The price point is higher than some student texts, but still reasonable if this were the main text for a course on Aristotle. Hackett produces useable, affordable translations of ancient texts, aimed primarily at teachers and learners and secondarily at researchers. The treatise we know as Aristotle's Metaphysics is central to both teaching and researching Aristotle. HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY NEW YEAR TO ALL OUR READERS! WE WILL RESUME PUBLICATION ON JANUARY 10, 2017
