This chapter seems like a 51-page labor of futility

The chapter I’m reading deals with a highly-nuanced view of akrasia in Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics.
Reading and outlining it takes a lot of effort (and about 20-25 min per page), and I’m not fully following the argument yet.
However, it’s like riding a stationary bike – it doesn’t go anywhere, but I’m getting really good exercise.
You know a book is going to be “good” when its Amazon.com listing looks like this.
Well, back to the hamster wheel…
