Beskrivelse
In the world of books, there are hundreds
of timeless classics. But only one collection of great works is a
classic in itself - "Britannica's Great Books". This 60-volume set
brings you centuries of celebrated writings from the greatest minds of
all time, including Plato, Shakespeare, Swift, Freud, Hemingway and
Twain. "Britannica's Great Books" are truly a valuable lifetime reading
companion, with 517 timeless works containing the great thoughts,
theories and insights that have shaped our culture today, offering ideas
that will continue to inspire mankind for centuries to come. To buy
such a comprehensive collection separately would be tremendously
difficult and nearly impossible. "The Great Books", and the priceless
education they bring you, represent what is perhaps the single greatest
book value on the market today. The new "Great Books" provide a
well-rounded, liberal arts education in many fields of study.
Philosophy, religion, mathematics, psychology, astronomy, politics and
anthropology are just a few of the areas you can explore from the
ancient Greeks to such 20th century greats as Sigmund Freud, Franz Kafka
and T.S. Eliot.You will find "Great Books" useful for practical,
everyday needs, too, like speech writing and business presentations, not
to mention great family conversations at the dinner table or
stimulating discussions with colleagues and friends.
