About this book
In Offbeat Philosophers, Lawrence Harvey offers the reader a collection of ten philosophical portraits -- each provides refreshing and provocative insights into thinkers who dared to play a different tune. Often labouring at the margins of mainstream thought, the thinkers herein tender novel and often disquieting perspectives that serve to challenge our 'unexamined' norms. Each portrait is followed by questions to ponder, deliberate and ultimately stimulate the reader to think otherwise.
