Why Is There Something Rather Than Nothing?: 23 Questions from Great Philosophers
By
Leszek Kolakowski
A tour of Western thought by one of the world's most eminent philosophers--in a book that fits in the palm of your hand.
Can nature make us happy? How can we know anything? What is justice? Why is there evil in the world? What is the source of truth? Is it possible for God not to exist? Can we really believe what we see?
There are questions that have intrigued the world's great thinkers over the ages, which still touch a chord in all of us today. They are questions that can teach us about the way we live, work, relate to each other and see the world. Here Leszek Kolakowski explores the essence of these ideas, introducing figures from Socrates to Thomas Aquinas, Descartes to Nietzsche, and concentrating on one single important philosophical question from each of them.
