A fun introduction in comics to deep thinking and the histor of Philosophy!

What is Thinking? And how does our thinking set us apart from other animals? Now that we' re thinking, what is Reality? Is there an objective reality or are there numerous subjective realities? And do we move in it with a free will or is everything predestined?

Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Erasmus, Descartes, Spinoza, Nietzche: just a few philosophers who have pondered these questions. Comic artist Margreet de Heer and her husband Yiri travel through the history of Western Philosophy and draw a colorful picture of all these questions.

Margreet de Heer (1972) is a comic artist from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, known for her comics on philosophical and religious subjects.
