About the book

In «The Story of My Mind; Or, How I Became a Rationalist,» M. M. Mangasarian intertwines autobiography with philosophical inquiry, elucidating his journey toward rationalism and skepticism. Written with a clear, engaging prose style, the book challenges traditional religious dogmas, reflecting the late 19th-century context of rising secular thought and intellectual emancipation. Mangasarian deftly examines pivotal moments in his life that catalyzed his transformation, offering insights into the philosophical tenets that shaped his worldview, while promoting the values of critical thinking and empirical evidence over blind faith. M. M. Mangasarian, a prominent figure in early rationalist discourse, experienced a rich intellectual upbringing that spurred his pursuit of truth beyond conventional boundaries. His diverse background'Äîincluding influences from his Armenian heritage, combined with his exposure to Western philosophical movements'Äîplayed a crucial role in his evolution as a thinker. A self-made man and advocate for social reform, Mangasarian's life experiences motivate his passionate critique of superstitious beliefs and his embrace of rationalism. This compelling narrative is highly recommended for readers interested in the intersections of personal history, philosophy, and the development of rational thought. Mangasarian'Äôs work not only offers a unique perspective on rationalism but also serves as an inspiration for anyone seeking to navigate their own intellectual journey with critical discernment.
