Readers will also find the life stories of the Christian Saint Augustine, the Muslim philosopher Avicenna, the Buddhist teacher Shinran, and the Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides. The book ends with a biography of John Dus Scotus, a Scottish philosopher and Franciscan friar. Readers are sure to gain an appreciation of the influential ideas that secured these philosophers a place in history.
