How the World Thinks by Julian Baggini

About How the World Thinks

Julian Baggini's How the World Thinks is there to fill the Sapiens-size hole in your daily experience' Observer's guide to Autumn in culture In this groundbreaking global overview of philosophy, Julian Baggini travels the world to provide a wide-ranging map of human thought. One of the great unexplained wonders of human history is that written philosophy flowered entirely separately in China, India and Ancient Greece at more or less the same time. These early philosophies have had a profound impact on the development of distinctive cultures in different parts of the world. What we call 'philosophy' in the West is not even half the narrative. Julian Baggini sets out to expand our horizons in How the World Thinks, exploring the philosophies of Japan, India, China and the Muslim world, as well as the lesser-known oral traditions of Africa and Australia's first peoples. Interviewing thinkers from around the globe, Baggini asks questions such as: why is the West is more individualistic than the East? What makes secularism a less impactful force in the Islamic world than in Europe? And how has China resisted pressures for greater political freedom? Offering profound insights into how different regions operate, and paying as much attention to commonalities as to differences, Baggini reveals that by gaining greater knowledge of how others think we take the first step to a greater understanding of ourselves.
