Arthur Schopenhauer is a widely read, admired and intriguing
philosopher whose ideas have had a profound impact on some of the
greatest minds of the last two centuries. He is known for his
powerful but simple prose-style and a philosophy that tackles
everyday life. Yet even the most sympathetic and intelligent reader
of his works is likely to be perplexed by seeming inconsistencies
and unconventional tone of a number of his major claims.
"Schopenhauer: A Guide for the Perplexed" is a clear and thorough
account of Schopenhauer's philosophy, his major works and ideas,
providing an ideal guide to the important and complex thought of
this key philosopher. The book explores arguments that he offers
for his pessimistic worldview that have long been misunderstood.
Geared towards the specific requirements of students who need to
reach a sound understanding of Schopenhauer contributions to
philosophy, this book also presents an in-depth analysis of his
western as well as his hitherto neglected eastern sources and
influences.
