Philos sophia is ancient Greek for the love of wisdom, and is the precursor of modern philosophy and psychology. As a "lover of wisdom," Jason Merchey brings a refreshing array of insightful and interesting quotations - and personal reflections - to this deep and wide investigation into the nature of wisdom.




Jason founded www. ValuesoftheWise.com in 2003 as an exploration into the values, ethics, and character of wise individuals.
