Talking Philosophy
OUP India (Verlag)
978-0-19-946288-9 (ISBN)
Talking Philosophy is as much a recollection of Sorabjis childhood and his scholarly life at Oxford as it is a philosophical reflection on issues as varied and complex as whether animals have reason or whether Gandhi could be considered an ethical role model.
The seventh book in the series of Ramin Jahanbegloos interviews of prominent intellectuals, it provides a fascinating glimpse into the life and mind of one of the most outstanding comparative philosophers of our time.
Ramin Jahanbegloo is an Iranian philosopher. He currently teaches in Toronto, Canada. He has authored 30 books, many of which have been translated into different languages. Time Will Say Nothing (2014) is his most recent work. Richard Sorabji is an Honorary Fellow, Wolfson College, Faculty of Philosophy, University of Oxford
