What is A Convex Mirror : Schopenhauer's Philosophy and the Sciences about?

Schopenhauer is most recognizable as "the philosopher of pessimism," the author of a system that teaches how art and morality can help human beings navigate life in "the worst of all possible worlds." This dominant image of Schopenhauer neglects a vital branch of his philosophy--the metaphysics of nature and its dialogue with contemporary science. The evolving relationship of Schopenhauer's philosophy to science provides a powerful interpretive tool, which A Convex Mirror uses to reflect the complexity of his philosophical system and shed light on its core concepts.
