About This Book

Luc Ferry outlines the evolution of Western philosophy from ancient Greece to the modern era. He explores how major intellectual movements, including Stoicism and Humanism, provide frameworks for understanding mortality and finding meaning. The book presents philosophy as a practical tool for salvation through reason rather than religious faith.
