About this audiobook
The philosophers from the east (China, other countries in Asia, etc.) have many things in common with the ancient philosophers in the west (Greece, Eurasia, etc.). But there are differences too.
In this guide, we will highlight and compare some of these differences and similarities. Some other chapters are devoted to several philosophers from both regions in the world, namely Pythagoras, Mo Ti, and Aristippus of Cyrene. Along with this, you will learn about general traditions, thinking patterns, and much more.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I just intended to write something positive about this specific audio book. It's an interesting principle, the whole premise of this book. You don't typically see that in many other books. And that's why it can use an individual like me to write a couple of positive things about it. I know I am certainly not the best of critique writers, but this deserves praise. The writer and narrator have certainly put a lot energy and time into these audiobooks.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If I would need to outline it, it will be simply in just one term: Excellent! In my eyes, it was pretty great. There may perhaps have been a few barely noticeable errors in there, but they did not trouble me. Anytime you are able to listen to a storyteller who is this great, and about an idea that you have an interest in, you do not care about the other parts. That's the end of the story. I guess the first number of sections were my favorite ones, because the entire concept that the subtitle refers to, gets discussed. All of the essentials are there. Later in the book, more depth gets added, and I think this is what makes it so great.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Amazing, I must say. I wanted to say a little something about this specific audiobook, so I am actually making the effort to write a customer review. I wish I was really good at writing testimonials, but you'll just have to be satisfied with this average recommendation, namely, that the audiobook was fascinating all the way through, till the very end.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It appears as if we are dealing with a professional here. The narrator's presentation was to die for. Not bad. As a matter of fact, I would practically say that it's amazing. In the beginning, I was questioning where exactly it was going, but after tuning in to it for a while, I got into it. Then I saw this book for what it really was: A fantastic endeavor by an educated author and expert narrator.
