Confessions of a Philosopher: A Personal Journey Through Western Philosophy from Plato to Popper Paperback - 1999
by Bryan Magee
Called a "masterpiece" by "The Literary Review, " London, this brilliant yet accessible memoir by an outstanding contemporary philosopher introduces readers to all the major figures of Western philosophy.
From the jacket flap
In this infectiously exciting book, Bryan Magee tells the story of his own discovery of philosophy and not only makes it come alive but shows its relevance to daily life. Magee is the Carl Sagan of philosophy, the great popularizer of the subject, and author of a major new introductory history, The Story of Philosophy. Confessions follows the course of Magee's life, exploring philosophers and ideas as he himself encountered them, introducing all the great figures and their ideas, from the pre-Socratics to Bertrand Russell and Karl Popper, including Wittgenstein, Kant, Nietzsche, and Schopenhauer, rationalism, utilitarianism, empiricism, and existentialism.
