Provides a light, informal, and contemporary introduction to the study of philosophy. These entertaining conversations emphasize that philosophical questions are contested and open-ended. The characters in each dialogue advocate different answers to questions on religion, ethics, personal identity, and other topics equitably.
As this book richly and entertainingly demonstrates, philosophy is as much the search for the right questions as it is a search for the right answers. Robert M. Martin's popular collection of philosophical puzzles, paradoxes and anecdotes is expanded and updated in this third edition.
This accessible, short introduction to symbolic logic includes coverage of sentential and predicate logic, translations, truth tables, and derivations. Topics are explained in a conversational, easy-to-understand way for readers not familiar with mathematics or formal systems, and the author provides patient, reader-friendly explanations-even with the occasional bit of humour.
How do you know what you know?Epistemology is the philosophical study of knowledge. Without knowledge, scientific enquiry is meaningless and we can't begin to analyse the world around us. What is knowledge? How do you know you are not dreaming? Should we trust our senses? Presuming no prior experience of philosophy, this book covers everything in the topic from scepticism and possible worlds to Kant's transcendentalism. Clear and readable, Epistemology: A Beginner's Guide is essential reading for students and aspiring thinkers.
