Schopenhauer: On the Fourfold Root of the Principle of Sufficient Reason and Other Writings

Omtale

On the Fourfold Root, translated here in a readable and scholarly edition, is an essential preliminary to Schopenhauer's great book The World as Will and Representation. In the companion works Schopenhauer defends his idea that all nature is an expression of will and attacks Newton's account of colour perception.
