Think, A Compelling Introduction To Philosophy
This
book is for people who want to think about the big themes: knowledge,
reason, truth, mind, freedom, destiny, identity, God, goodness,
justice. These are not the hidden preserve of specialists. They are
things that men and women wonder about naturally, for they structure
the ways we think about the world and our place in it. They are also
themes about which thinkers have had things to say.
If readers have absorbed this book, then they should be on better
terms with the big themes. And they should be able to read many
otherwise baffling major thinkers with pleasure and reasonable
understanding.
