This best-selling dictionary is written by one of the most famous philosophers of our time, and widely recognised as the best dictionary of its kind.

Product Information
"Thanks to clever typography, this revision of the 1994 edition eliminates virtually nothing, adding hundreds of new entries in the same 400 pages with no loss of legibility.... This edition will double as a world-religion reference, but its original material is, reassuringly, little changed."--School Library Journal
