About the Author
Anthony Grayling teaches philosophy at Birkbeck College, London and is a Fellow of St Anne's, Oxford. He has a regular column in The Times and Prospect. Arthur Schopenhauer was the first European philosopher to realise the value of Eastern philosophy and give it pride of place in his writings. Fascinated by human behaviour, he wrote extensively on human psychology - such as persuasion and the idea of the will - almost three quarters of a century before Freud. He was born in Germany, and, unusual for a German philosopher, wrote in lucid, ironic and elegant prose. The accessibility of writing led to his rediscovery, first in Britain later elsewhere, towards the end of his life.
