«Los pensadores» is the historical essay by Daniel J. Boorstin, published by Booket in paperback (344 pages, in Spanish).
The book traces the history of Western thought in three stages: the search for truth in the divine and in classical philosophy, experience and liberalism, and the rise of the social sciences. Boorstin portrays thinkers such as Socrates, Descartes, and Marx and shows how each era reformulated the questions of the human being.
Third volume of Boorstin's 'Knowledge Trilogy', originally published in 1998 as 'The Seekers: The Story of Man's Continuing Quest to Understand His World'.
For readers interested in the history of ideas, philosophy, and the great intellectual debates of the West.
