Philosophers' Dogs

Each and every human philosopher since time immemorial has stolen their best ideas and insights from their four-legged friends. Not only that, but they've shamelessly changed and altered their dogs' original thoughts to make them sound more human (read: more foolish). Philosophers Dogs is the groundbreaking volume that will set the record straight and, in doing so, shake the very foundations of both Western and Eastern philosophy. Featuring beautiful illustrations alongside meticulous research and historical fact,* it follows the trials, tribulations and tail-wagging of the dogs owned by famous philosophers and essayists, and presents to readers the unadulterated real histories of the true masters of enlightenment. A vital addition to the bookshelves of philosophy students, dog lovers and anyone with an interest in THE TRUTH, Philosophers Dogs is also packed with genuine quotes hitherto (wrongly) attributed to minds such as Karl Marx, Ayn Rand, Socrates and Simone de Beauvoir. *Not necessarily historical or factual.
