Sir Anthony Kenny segir heillandi sögu um upphaf heimspekinnar og einstaka grósku hennar í hinum forna Miðjarðarhafsheimi. Þetta er fyrsta bindið af fjórum í viðamiklu nýju yfirlitsriti hans um sögu vestrænnar heimspeki. Verkið er skrifað fyrir breiðan lesendahóp en jafnframt nægilega ítarlegt og djúpt til að veita raunverulegan skilning á helstu heimspekingum. Skýr og áhrifamikil frásögn Kenny verður ómissandi lesning fyrir alla sem hafa áhuga á fólkinu og hugmyndunum sem mótuðu þróun vestrænnar hugsunar.
Sir Anthony Kenny tells the fascinating story of the birth of philosophy and its remarkable flourishing in the ancient Mediterranean world. This is the first of four volumes in which he will unfold a magisterial new history of Western philosophy. Specially written for a broad popular readership, but serious and deep enough to offer a genuine understanding of the great philosophers, Kenny's lucid and stimulating history will become the definitive work for anyone interested in the people and ideas that shaped the course of Western thought.
