The Story of Philosophy is a classic account of the lives and opinions of the great philosophers of the Western world. This text is a splendid example of author Will Durant's eminently readable scholarship, and is a key book for any reader who wishes to survey the history and development of philosophical ideas in the Western world.

A brilliant and concise account of the lives and ideas of the great philosophers -- Plato, Aristotle, Bacon, Spinoza, Voltaire, Kant, Schopenhauer, Spencer, Nietzsche, Bergson, Croce, Russell, Santayana, James and Dewey -- The Story of Philosophy is one of the great books of our time. Few write for the nonspecialist as well as Will Durant, and this book is a splendid example of his eminently readable scholarship. Durant's insight and wit never cease to dazzle; The Story of Philosophy is a key book for any reader who wishes to survey the history and development of philosophical ideas in the Western world.

The New York Times A delight.
