Philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer wrote his best-known work in his thirties: The World as Will and Representation. He wrote his magnum opus so young because early in his career, he threw himself wholeheartedly into the life of a philosopher. While developing his theories, he both drew from and rejected many of the philosophies of his idealistic predecessor Immanuel Kant. He worked with an intense conviction, adopting staunch ideas that both established him as an important scholar and destroyed his personal life. This book explores the life and legacy of the man whose ideas live on in the work of so many, from Nietzsche to Tolstoy.
