520 $a"Simple, accessible and concise, [this book] is a visually led introduction to 200 of the greatest questions man has ever asked. Ranging from ancient philosophers to contemporary politicians, it distils the intricate ideas of humanity's influential thinkers into easily digestible mini-essays. Spanning both Eastern and western traditions, [it] looks at problems of ethics, evil, freedom, rights, truth and causality through the eyes of the Sophists, Cynics, Stoics and Epicureans - among many othes. Concepts such as mind-body dualism, Confucianism and existentialism are all explained clearly. From Descartes to [Charles] Darwin and Buddha to [Jeremy] Bentham, this is the ... reference guide to this intriguing and though-provoking subject."--Book flap.
