Ancient Philosophy: : The Voice of Our Loving Forefathers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789789186518)

This book explores some of the basic principles that guide our daily living and interactions with society in general. With its anchor on the ideals that guarantee peaceful co-existence, love for mankind and reverence to the Almighty God, it draws richly from the robust and all-encompassing philosophical perspectives of ancient Greek and Chinese philosophers such as Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Confucius Buddha, Xao Ming and a host of others whose ageless ideas remain relevant as ever. Also, it draws richly from African traditional philosophy to emphasize those century-long values that have continued to illuminate our minds and paths.

By echoing the deeply reflective and insightful thoughts of these great minds across continents, this book considers philosophy in the light of evincing the ever-abiding desire to advance humanity. This has not been achieved without an odyssey into human history and civilizations spanning millennia and unearthing the beauty of philosophy, the limitless potentials of the human mind and the wonder of God's creation. In all, the philosophical contributions of these ancient philosophers are seen to possess a remarkable facility in resolving dilemma at critical moments of decision making, providing therapy for the distraught, safeguarding and restoring societal peace, elevating mankind in general, among a superfluity of other commitments.

Ancient Philosophy ultimately explores Biblical ordinances to decorate the God-at-heart and direct them in doing as commanded, to guarantee their place in God's heart. The book stresses the magnificence of the Almighty God, the master philosopher, who has generously endowed His creation with great intellectual gifts and astounding wisdom with which to chart their path through life's intricate journey.
