Description
Book SynopsisRobert Wicks is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
Trade ReviewRobert Wicks' Reader's Guide is impressive in very many ways. It demonstrates a mastery of the Schopenhauer corpus and an ability to explain complex arguments in a clear, insightful and accessible fashion, without oversimplification. I believe that it will become essential reading for students wanting to grasp the rich thought of Schopenhauer's masterwork. -- Prof. dr. Bart Vandenabeele, Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, Universiteit Gent
Wicks has done a really excellent job in pressing his deep scholarly knowledge of Schopenhauer into a form that is original, entertaining, and teacherly. -- Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
Reviewed in Tijdschrift voor Filosofie 73 (2011), 4.
I enjoyed reading Wicks’s text overall and heartily recommend it. -- Jason M. Costanzo, St. John's University * Philosophy in Review *
