All five volumes of George Santayana's philosophical masterwork
exploring the manifestations of reason in life are united in this
superb edition. The Life of Reason begins boldly, with Santayana
explaining his concept of reason in great detail. How a mind may
embark and progress on applying rational thought to life is
explained, and the practical value of such thinking methods are
demonstrated. The second volume sees the author questioning whether
men can be exhorted to virtuous behaviors without the concept of a
creator, heaven, hell or other supernatural concepts. The third
volume, Reason in Religion, is an emotional and at times
autobiographical account of Santayana's own struggles with faith.
Volumes four and five concern science and art, respectively. The
basis of artistic expression and its grounding in reasoning is
discussed, with chapters dedicated to the visual art of painting
and also music.
