The Making of a Philosopher

The Making of a Philosopher

by Colin Mc Ginn (Author)

Synopsis

Colin McGinn sets out to make philosophy accessible to the layperson 'by describing what it is like to be a philosopher from the inside'. The result is part memoir, part introduction to philosophy; the self-portrait of an inquiring mind engaged by the radicalism of both rock 'n' roll and Bertrand Russell, taking McGinn from a mining family in West Hartlepool to New York as Rutgers Professor of Philosophy.
