Way to Wisdom : An Introduction to Philosophy by Karl Jaspers is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.
One of the founders of existentialism, Karl Jaspers presents for the general reader a lucid summary of his great philosophical works.

In "Way to Wisdom" he gives a brilliant and exciting introduction to an understanding of philosophy and offers the serious reader an approach to a deeper understanding.
