The Philosopher's Handbook by Stanley Rosen
An ideal introduction for the casual reader and a beneficial reference for the student, The Philosopher's Handbook features the writings of some of the world's most influential philosophers. Based on the premise that all human beings are curious about their existence, Rosen's collection brings together primary excerpts from the works of prominent thinkers such as Plato, Nietzsche, Descartes, Machiavelli, and Kant. Experts in each field have carefully selected the sources and provided brief introductions to help readers gain insight into the readings. Newly revised in order to emphasize its broad appeal, The Philosopher's Handbook is a solid introduction to Western philosophy for all inquiring minds.Stanley Rosen, Prof. Emer. in Philosophy from Boston University, is a heralded author of numerous works in ancient and medieval philosophy. Other works of Stanley Rosen published by St. Augustine's Press: Plato's Symposium, Plato's Sophist, Plato's Statesman, The Ancients and the Moderns, Nihilism, G.W.F. Hegel, The Limits of Analysis, The Question of Being, and Metaphysics in Ordinary Language.
