Summary |
Philosophy is a fascinating discipline that encourages us to think about the BIG questions. What is life? What is space? Who are we, and why are we here? Where do we belong, and how should we relate to one another? Philosophy gives us access to the wisdom of the great philosophers, who thought long and hard about these questions. It then allows us to judge it for ourselves, against what we believe to be true. In Philosophy for Beginners, Max Charlesworth draws on a lifetime's study to bring philosophy to life. In an uncomplicated way, he guides the reader through the various forms of philosophy, and looks at some of the men and women who explored them. He shows that the way we apply philosophy can bring understanding and meaning to our modern lives. |
