This box draws together twenty of the greatest ideas found in Western philosophy, which span the history of thought from Socrates to Jean-Paul Sartre. Each is displayed on a beautiful illustrated card. We are reminded of the wit, humanity and deep relevance of a number of philosophers, including Nietzsche and Heidegger, Kant and Camus, Machiavelli and Kierkegaard.
Essential thoughts about love, work, anxiety, self-knowledge and happiness are here rescued, highlighted and inspiringly presented in order that they can work their consoling effect where it is most needed: in our daily lives.
