Written with the general reader in mind, this provides an ideal introduction to philosophical ideas.

Concise and informative, the text introduces the basic concepts behind each philosopher's work together with biographical and historical details. Both easy-to-use and a stimulating read, this is an ideal source of reference, and includes an eight-page photographic section! Philip Stokes has a Masters degree in Philosophy from Bristol University.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Philosophy in the West has a long and venerable tradition, stretching back to almost six centuries before the birth of Christ. 100 Essential Thinkers introduces one hundred of the world's greatest philosphers and locates them within the scholl to which their work belongs. Refreshingly accessible, this accomplished book presents a lucid exposition of the thought of the great philosophers of the western tradition. As such, it is invaluable both to readers seeking a clear introduction to the work of individual philosophers and to those coming to the subject for the first time.
