I hate to start a new thread about this but I need to know -- a bookstore next to where I work is selling the two volume set of Aristotle from the Britannica Great Books series for next to nothing. Are these the unabridged, complete works of Aristotle? I've looked online (and my Google-fu is strong) but can't seem to find the answer.
Also anyone with a general question about books can drop a response. Thanks!
Even if they are they will not be very good translations and they are worth about next to nothing individually. Maybe 10 dollars each.

>The Great Books series reprints the works of Aristotle in the standard English translations, licensed from Oxford University Press.
From what I can find it's all the known works, so you should be ok there.
