"A technique for producing ideas"
"This has brought me to the conclusion that the production of ideas is just as definite a process as the production of Fords; that the production of ideas, too, runs on an assembly line; that in this production the mind follows an operative technique which can be learned and controlled; and that its effective ise is just as much a matter of practive in the technique as is the effective use of any tool". (page 15)

"Schopenhauer, The Arguments of the Philosophers" is the bibliography of Schopenhauer.
"He does not quite say that here; he simply confines his attention to objects for a subject and asserts that they are all representations (there might, as far as that goes, be other objects - not for a subject)." (page 15)
_ The book focuses on Schopenhauer's main work, Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung. That book has appeared in many German editions. For a very long time the only English translation of the work was that by R. B. Haldane and J. Kemp. Nevertheless, the Haldane and Kemp translation has many birtues, even if it is not based on a recent or the most accurate edition of the text.
_The author is D. W. Hamlyn.
_The book was published in London in 1980.
