    In this landmark new study of Western thought, Anthony Gottlieb looks afresh at the writings of the great thinkers, questions much of conventional wisdom, and explains his findings with unbridled brilliance and clarity. After finishing The Dream of Reason, listeners will be graced with a fresh appreciation of the philosophical quest, its entertaining and bizarre byways, and its influence on every aspect of life.

    The Dream of Reason is a spellbinding reintroduction to philosophical thought. The book is as witty as it is fascinating. The narrator is fantastic; her flexible voice creates characters and underscores the humor that is the authors strong suit. Highly recommend.

    In the ancient lands of Middle-earth, a place of elves and dwarves, Orcs and wizards, the darkest evil and the brightest good, a hobbit named Frodo Baggins embarks on a perilous quest: to carry the One Ring, ruler of all the Rings of Power, into the shadowy land of Mordor and destroy it in the fires where it was forged.

    I, too, purchased the series unheard and unreviewed. I am grievously disappointed. I have rarely heard such ill-conceived overacting as is contained in these tapes. The producers have no understanding of these books. The tapes do not even succeed as parody as they are devoid of wit. What a waste of time and money.
