Paperback. History (much like his contemporaries) has tended to judge Camus harshly--as mediocre philosopher, conflicted man of the left and, worst of all, apologist for French imperialism.

Series: Blackwell Great Minds. Num Pages: 232 pages. BIC Classification: 2ADF; DSBH; DSK; HPCF. Category: (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 230 x 153 x 13. Weight in Grams: 338.
