It is the perfect introduction to the great thinkers who, from ancient times to the modern day, have tried to make sense of the world by asking questions such as- ""Who am I?"", ""Is the world real?"", ""Is it ever right to tell a lie?"". Meet Socrates and Confucius, Kant and Sartre, and many others who have studied and pondered on the complexities of everyday life.
