Philosophy without the boring bits – the perfect antidote to the complexity of lifeBig ideas sometimes come from the strangest places. This concise introduction to 76 of the most thought-provoking books ever written shows how they can help us in our everyday lives.Russell ranges widely as he demystifies philosophy, selecting works from Plato, Descartes and Wittgenstein to Philip K. Dick and the Moomins, as well as contemporary thinkers such as Peter Singer and John Rawls.In separate sections focusing on everything from traditional philosophy to the continental tradition, and from meditations to practical philosophy, Russell gives us both the lives and the lessons of the great thinkers in perfectly clear, readily accessible form.
