Roots of wisdom

Roots of wisdom By Helen Buss Mitchell
2008 | 568 Pages | ISBN: 0495094854 | PDF | 76 MB


Roots of Wisdom asserts that philosophy is a worldwide enterprise, not just the province of ancient Greeks and their intellectual heirs in Europe and North America. This is not a universally accepted proposition and that means that I face special challenges when I introduce thinkers and thought systems not traditionally included in philosophy texts. In every case, my task is to demonstrate how these ideas qualify as part of the human love affair with wisdom we call philosophy.
