Sobre IBD

Join a fellow traveler on a walkabout through Paris and London, and then travel with him across England, Scotland and Wales. After those walkabouts, accompany him as he journeys across America and follows the equator to Australia. Finally, wander with him along the corridors of modern and postmodern philosophy, and as he travels with old and new Philosophes, who all voiced an opinion as regards this travel book.It is a book that people won’t buy, won’t read and won’t praise. Mark TwainAfter reading only a few pages, I gave up the study of philosophy forever. VoltaireI cannot look upon the book without shedding tears. Bertrand RussellIf I could only make a travel book like that, I would be perfectly willing to die-even anxious. John DeweyI have seen a great many travel books in my time, but none that this one reminds me of. Will DurantThis travel book is one-third fabrication, one-third prevarication and one-third barefaced lies. However, the rest of the book is the unadulterated truth. Dr. Morris A. Nussbaum 3
