Filosofia

Alan Wilson Watts oli brittiläinen filosofi, kirjailija ja puhuja, joka tunnettiin itämaisten filosofioiden tulkitsemisesta ja popularisoinnista länsimaiselle yleisölle.
Hänellä oli korkeakoulututkintoja teologiassa ja jumaluusopissa, ja hän kirjoitti yli 25 kirjaa sekä laajasti aiheista kuten henkilökohtainen identiteetti, todellisuus, tietoisuus ja onnellisuuden tavoittelu.
Wattsin työ yhdisti tieteellistä tietoa itäisiin ja läntisiin uskonnollisiin ja filosofisiin opetuksiin.
Hänen ainutlaatuinen näkökulmansa ja kykynsä yhdistää monimutkaisia ideoita henkilökohtaiseen kokemukseen tekivät hänestä vaikutusvaltaisen buddhalaisuuden, taolaisuuden ja hindulaisuuden käsitteiden esittelijän länsimaisille lukijoille 1900-luvun puolivälissä.

Worth my money and time, and really well made. I've never seen this quality of summaries on other websites. Very helpful!

— Em

Highly recommended!! Fantastic service. Perfect for those that want a little more than a teaser but not all the intricate details of a full audio book.
