Philosophy: 50 Essential Ideas

From ancient Greece to modern day philosophy departments, the discipline of philosophy has consistently posed questions which resist being answered quickly or completely. This book aims to introduce readers to these millennia-old philosophical problems, from free will, to the self, to time, knowledge, and many more. Explore and familiarize yourself with the thinking of philosophical greats, from Plato, to Kant, to Nietzsche, and begin to understand how the answers we give to philosophical problems can inflect other areas of our life and our thinking. This latest installment from the Essential Ideas series is a great place for curious folks to expand their understanding of one of the world's oldest intellectual pursuits and become fluent in the language of philosophy.
