History of Philosophy Wednesday, Feb 27 2008

INTRODUCTION

This will be a regular series of posts in which I attempt to explain how we arrived at today through the philosophers who provided the knowledge to make it happen. Indeed, most things that we take for granted in life, today, arose because of the thoughts of a select few.
These are the great philosophers of history. In a continuing series of short posts, I will try to provide a reader friendly understanding of their ideas, and the lives they led. The subject couldn’t be more important. They made us what we are.
