The Heart of Philosophy

Autor Jacob Needleman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 iul 2003 – vârsta de la 18 ani
Philosophy as it is frequently taught in classrooms bears little relation to the impassioned and immensely practical search for self-knowledge conducted by not only its ancient avatars but also by men and woman who seek after truth today. In The Heart of the Philosophy, Jacob Needleman provides a "user's guide" for those who would take philosophy seriously enough to understand its life-transforming qualities.
