Dr Alexander Moseley


I receive no grants for my writing: I am an independent writer and scholar working hard to earn a living, and writing during the wee hours listening to Adagio FM or my CDs of Pink Floyd, Chopin, Schubert, Shostakovich, Philip Glass and other classical composers depending on mood!

I do not believe that other workers should fund my passion for philosophical writing through their taxes, so my research funds come out of my own budget - not the taxpayers'. Purchasing through the Amazon links may earn my teaching organization a few pennies, funds received going to help expand a privately circulating library amongst our Classical Foundations pupils and their parents - these include teenagers, undergradutes, and the odd masters or PhD student who comes my way. I am similarly passionate about getting people to READ rather than watch TV and encouraging people to THINK for themselves rather than repeat platitudes and media headlines.

REVIEWS

'This is an outstanding single-volume synopsis of the key people and themes in the history of western philosophy. Moseley's authoritative command of the subject is enhanced by an informal writing style that is free of unnecessary technical jargon.
While the book's alphabetical arrangement makes it a valuable reference work, its narrative structure flows so smoothly that it can be enjoyably read cover to cover. If you are new to philosophy, this is the place to begin; if you are already philosophically adept, you will appreciate the book as a convenient repository of philosophical knowledge.'
Professor James Fieser, University of Tennessee, USA

“Moseley does have obvious strengths in particular subject areas as well as a conversational and sometimes humorous style.” -Library Journal


"Alexander Moseley has written a clear, useful, and often witty primer on the key figures and concepts of philosophy.  Undergraduates and general readers new to the subject will be in his debt." – Edward Feser, Pasadena City College, USA
