    This book is available either individually, or as part of the specially-priced Arguments of the Philosphers Collection. The purpose of this series is to provide a contemporary assessment and history of the entire course of philosophical thought. Each book constitutes a detailed, critical introduction to the work of a philosopher of major influence and significance. It is sometimes said of Schopenhauer that he was not a very systematic thinker, but in the main structure of Schopenhauer’s major work Das Welt als Wille und Vorstellung is really quite clear, and contains a continuous argument which takes in the bulk of his philosophy. This volume looks at Schopenhauer's works.
