This is one of the Penguin “Great Ideas” series – but it is
one of the few within that collection where I have found the writer’s thought
completely without merit.
OK he is anti God and religion and therefore there would be
little common ground between us in terms of conclusions, however often reading
the writings of those that have come to other conclusions from yourself
sharpens your thought and is an intellectually stimulating counter-point. I found done of this with Schopenhauer, his
arguments seemed to fail even on their own terms.
I would also add that his Essay “On Women” would suggest
that he wasn’t a feminist to put it mildly…
