Aldous Huxley's work extends far beyond the dystopian genre in which his magnum opus was written. 'The Perennial Philosophy' is a brilliant exploration of the systemic features and foundations of all world religions, helping humanity interpret a common understanding of God and eternity. This book draws on canonical texts, masterpieces of philosophical thought and world literature, which the author supplements with his own commentary and explanations. The questions explored within its pages are questions of faith and truth, self-knowledge and suffering, symbols and rituals.
