Philosophy 101: From Plato and Socrates to Ethics and Metaphysics, an Essential Primer on the History of Thought ~ by Paul Kleinman, 2013, philosophy, 288 pages
A reviewer wrote that this books takes you "on a journey through the development of human intellectual thought from several hundred years B.C. to present." That's a fair summary. Since philosophy was part of my double major in college, I smiled when I saw that someone had donated this little book to the Crown Center library. I'll probably read it before shelving it (or trading it for fiction, which people living here are likely to read). Hey, I see The Thinker musing in the top right corner.
Week in Review
- On Monday, I mused about walking to the store for groceries, HERE.
- On Tuesday, I wrote about a book I had decided to re-read, HERE.
- On Wednesday, my subject was a novel set in Egypt, HERE.
- My Thursday Thoughts were about the massive piles of books donated to the Crown Center library that are currently piled up in my apartment, HERE.
- My Book Beginning for Friday was from a novel about swimmers, HERE.
- Saturday was Pi Day, pronounced Pie Day, so I mentioned both fruit pies and pizza pie, HERE. I am certain some of you who read this will remember "pi equals 3.14" from your math class and say, "Philosophy and now math?"
