Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Philosophic Thought Religion
From the beginning human beings have striven to solve the riddle of the Universe. The Egyptians, the Assy rians, the Babylonians, no less than the Greeks and other cultivated races of ancient times, attempted a solution. Modern philosophy may be traced as far back as Socrates, Plato, and Aris totle, whose thoughts have profoundly in?uenced the thoughts of the philo sophers of every succeeding age. Some still wonder how this marvellous uni verse ever came into existence. Others wonder what is behind it all; they seek to discover the reality that is behind mere appearances or pheno mena. Others are led to marvel how it is that we get to know things at all.
