ideas and men : the story of western thought 2nd edition

---

This is a book about the world-views of men in our Western tradition, the ideas they have held and still hold on the Big Questions-cosmological questions, which ask whether the universe makes sense in terms of human capacity to comprehend and, if so, what kind of sense; theological and metaphysical questions, which ask further questions about purpose and design of the universe, and about man's place in it; and ethical and aes thetic questions, which ask whether what we do and what we want to do make sense, ask what we really mean by good and bad, by beautiful and ugly. The recorded answers to these and similar questions-that is, most of our Western philosophy, art, literature, and in some senses, natural science-fill millions of volumes. Any account of them, therefore, must omit vastly more than it can include.rn
