Albert Camus on Knowledge, Intelligence, and Nihilism

Looking for more philosophy books

"The modern mind is in complete disarray. Knowledge has stretched itself to the point where neither the world nor our intelligence can find any foot-hold. It is a fact that we are suffering from nihilism."

-Albert Camus

Professor Robert Solomon (deceased) who taught at the University of Texas, at Austin, on continental philosophy, gives a lecture on Albert Camus and the 'Absurd':

Primary Source: The Myth of Sisyphus: And Other Essays by Albert Camus

Secondary Source: Camus (Blackwell Great Minds) by David Sherman

Best Philosophy Books.
