 | Critique of Religion and Philosophy by Walter A. Kaufmann
Buy new: $21.86 / Used from: $5.77 This is an excellent book, thogugh some of it is dated, and some of the names won't mean much to 21st century readers. Still very much reccomended.

|

| Religions in Four Dimensions: Existential and Aesthetic, Historical and Comparative by Walter Arnold. Kaufmann

|
| Man's Lot: What is Man? by Walter Kaufmann

|
 | Goethe, Kant, and Hegel: Discovering the Mind. Volume one. (Volume 1) by Walter Kaufmann
Buy new: $24.95 / Used from: $6.62 Good book, goes into a lot on Goethe (a hero to Kaufmann). Kant lovers will hate it. Reccomended
|
 | Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Buber: Discovering the Mind (Discovering the Mind, Vol 2) (Volume 2)
