M. Émile Faguet?s book ?Initiation into Philosophy? is exactly that ? an initiation ? that is to say a baptism into philosophy. The book, in less than one hundred pages, traverses the ancient origins and theoretical evolutions of what is known as Philosophy in Western Europe.
From the astronomical musing of Thales thru to the moral dialectics of Socrates, the philosophy of primitive Christendom, the ?Cogito? of Descartes, and right thru to the philosophy in France that was contemporary with the book?s publishing date of 1914 M. Faguet gives brief, simple, and occasionally critical, expositions of the greatest minds and their philosophies.
While Faguet?s book may well be called an initiation, it is so, only in that the more sacred rites of philosophy are withheld from the novitiate. To pass on, the adept must study the individual works of the authors, thinkers, and disciples for themselves; yet this small and accessible book provides an excellent stepping stone for those who do not yet know an ?idealist? from a ?positivist? nor ?Buridan?s Ass? from ?Ockham?s Razor?.
