Great Thinkers

I have a great love of history and this book was a way for me to talk about a few historical figures who have made some big impacts on our world in a very simple and brief way.  This book is so simple that a child can use it.  For every letter of the alphabet there is a thinker with a brief summary of the thinker's beliefs or accomplishments.  Not a lot of information is provided but the hope is that the reader will seek out more information on his or her own.  A quotation from the thinker is also posted on the page.

Whether we agree with them or not, (and there are many philosophers in the book that I disagree with) the ideas of these men have, in many ways, shaped our modern culture.  By no means is this a complete work with every philosopher.  It is a very simple to the point introduction to several philosophers.

Something to remember when considering a great thinker, "We are what we think.  All that we are arises from our thoughts.  With our thoughts we make the world." - Buddha.  Regardless of whether or not this book is something that interests you - think great thoughts because thoughts make us into who we are.
