A Graphic Guide

Introducing Mind and Brain

Richard Appignanesi goes on a personal quest of Existentialism in its original state. He begins with Camus' question of suicide: 'Must life have a meaning to be lived?' Is absurdity at the heart of Existentialism? Or is Sartre right: is Existentialism 'the least scandalous, most technically austere' of all teachings? This brilliant Graphic Guide explores Existentialism in a unique comic book-style.

Introducing Existentialism

"A silent movie plays and those existential clowns Laurel and Hardy are trading blows in their endless feud. In the real world, things aren't always black and white. In the technicolour glory of a summer's day in a London park, another cycle of tit-for-tat revenge is about to begin... Award-winning graphic novelist Oscar Zarate's latest work links the lives of two single-parent families into a tense and dramatic chain of causation, levelling a delicate bird's-eye view - and a distinctively modern take - on this oldest of human stories. Part Greek tragedy, part slapstick comedy, and itself a wholly original work of art, 'The Park' celebrates the redemptive, civilizing powers of nature... and of love" --From publisher's web site.

The Park

Introducing Marxism provides a fundamental account of Karl Marx's philosophy, its roots in 19th century Europe and the radical critique that inspired vast revolutions. Marxism is not simply a phantom of the Cold War. It remains a potent ethical force in our age of uncertainty.

Father of existentialism or the Eeyore of philosophy? Known as the first modern theologian, SørenKierkegaard was a prolific writer of the Danish ‘golden age’. A philosopher,poet and social critic, his key concepts of angst, despair, and theimportance of the individual, influenced many 20th-century philosophers andliterature throughout Europe. Dave Robinson and Oscar Zarate’s brilliant graphicguide explains what Kierkegaard means by 'anti-philosophy', and tells anilluminating story of the strange life and ideas of a man tortured by hisattempts to change the very priorities of Western thought.

Stephen Hawking is a world-famous physicist, but few people outside his field know what he has done. To the public he is a figure of tragic dimensions - a brilliant scientist and author of the phenomenal best-seller A Brief History of Time, and yet confined to a wheelchair, unable to speak or write. Hawking has mastered the two great theories of 20th-century physics - Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics - and has made breathtaking discoveris about where they break down or overlap, such as on the edge of a Black Hole or at the Big Bang origin of the Universe. Here is the perfect introduction to Hawking's work by the author, who was helped by several long discussions with Hawking in researching the book.

Lenin is the key to understanding the Russian Revolution. His dream was the creation of the world's first Socialist state. It was a short-lived dream that became a nightmare when Stalin rose to absolute power in 1929.
