This is a series of books by Paul
Strathern, each presenting a concise
account of a philosopher's life and ideas,
explaining his influence on man's struggle
to understand his existence in the world.
Each is a brief but authoritative
interpretation of a great thinker. Each
can be read in about ninety minutes and
used over and over for reviewing a
philosopher's main ideas. And each is an
inexpensive addition to one's personal
library.
