520 Thousands of years ago, ancient philosophers asked some
important questions: "What is real?", "What is the point
of my existence?", "Why is there evil in the world?", and
"What can I know?" These questions have gone on to spark
passionate debates about our existence and how we
understand the world around us. In this engaging and
accessible introduction to philosophy, readers aged 11+
will be introduced to a variety of philosophical ideas
through the teachings of Plato, Confucius, Simone de
Beauvoir, and many more. Vibrant, reader-friendly
illustrations bring the history of ideas and thinking to
life, and provide topics for reflection and debate. With
biographies of the most influential philosophers from
around the world, young readers will explore the questions
that have been fundamental to the development of
scientific study, logical thinking, religious beliefs,
freedom in society, and much more. Thought experiments
peppered throughout will help to connect readers with the
theories presented so they can apply them to their own
lives.
