When the Indian people, inspired by the words of Mahatma Gandhi, overthrew British rule, they proved that great political change could exist without violence. Revered both as a saint and a master politician in his native country, Gandhi proffered a philosophy that combined Thoreau’s doctrine of civil disobedience with many Hindu beliefs. A comprehensive introduction to this influential modern thinker, The Wisdom of Gandhi recounts his deeply held views on a variety of topics.

Modern Protestant Christianity often overlooks the background of the inter-testamental books of Wisdom. The Apostles were very familiar with these books, however; and made frequent allusions to them throughout the New Testament. When these copious allusions are considered, it illustrates a worldview that had already diverged significantly from the ancient Hebrew traditions, and is closer to the Greek Bible version of the Septuagint which they more often used.

He remains an emblem of wisdom and a pillar of philosophical inquiry, urging us all to live examined and thoughtful lives.

Denostado, incomprendido, relegado durante siglos al olvido, Epicuro propuso con su filosofía un camino para alcanzar algo tan esquivo para sus contemporá- neos como lo sigue siendo para nosotros: la felicidad. Y lo hizo de una forma simple y coherente, alejándose a un tiempo de la búsqueda incesante del placer—empresa vana, con la que no logramos sino acrecentar más y más nuestros deseos—y del ascetismo extremo propio de doctrinas rígidas como el estoicismo.
