Items related to The Making of a Philosopher
McGinn sets out to make philosophy accessible to the layperson "by describing what it is like to be a philosopher from the inside". The result is part memoir, part introduction to philosophy; the self-portrait of an inquiring mind engaged by the radicalism of both rock 'n' roll and Bertrand Russell, taking McGinn from a mining family in West Hartlepool to New York as Rutgers Professor of Philosophy.
