I am afraid I have not read most philosophers, is what I mean, o honored First Acolyte.

In fact, I think I could probably count the classic philosophers I have read on one hand...

There are some really nice uploads of his work on MR - mostly done by Patricia I think - and they are certainly worth a read.
Indian philosophy and women. Neat! I have to try and read him, some time. I don't have a TBR list because it would be too depressing, but I'll put his name in that cobwebby corner of my mind where I keep the philosphers I'd like to read some day.
