Thinkers Who Changed the World 3

The selection we brought from the Indian Vedas to Ancient China, Ancient Greece, Rome and Renaissance Europe in the first and second volumes is continued in the third volume.

Philosophical quest started in ancient times; In other words, the process that started with the discussion of the essence of matter and the laws of its movement was now crowned with the determination of the social laws of the nature and change of humans and societies. Bare-skinned women, who emerged on the stage of history with the Age of Enlightenment and especially French materialism, were bringing the world to the brink of a new era with radical thoughts and actions unprecedented in history.
