In this LANDMARK study of Western thought, Anthony Gottlieb looks afresh at the writings of the great thinkers, questions many pieces of conventional wisdom, & explains his findings w/ unbridled BRILLIANCE & CLARITY. From the pre-Socratic philosophers such as Empedocles, whose account of the cosmos seems "a mixture of the physics of Stephen Hawking & the romantic novels of Barbara Cartland," through the celebrated days of Socrates, Plato & Aristotle, up to Renaissance visionaries like Erasmus & Bacon, "philosophy emerges here as a phenomenon unconfined by any one discipline. Indeed, as Gottlieb explains, its most revolutionary breakthroughs in the natural & social sciences have repeatedly been co-opted by other branches of knowledge, leading up the illusion that philosophers never make any progress. From the physics of angels to Umberto Eco's "The Name of the Rose", Gottlieb builds through example & anecdote a VIVID portrait of the human drive for understanding. After closing "The Dream of Reason", readers will be graced w/ a fresh appreciation of the philosophical quest, its entertaining & bizarre byways, & its influence on every aspect of life. * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: ANTHONY GOTTLIEB is a British writer, former Executive Editor of The Economist, & historian of ideas.
