Overview
What is this thing called Philosophy? is the definitive textbook for all who want a thorough introduction to the field. It introduces philosophy using a question-led approach that reflects the discursive nature of the discipline. Edited by Duncan Pritchard, each section is written by a high-profile contributor focusing on a key area of philosophy, and contains three or four question-based chapters offering an accessible point of engagement.
The core areas of philosophy introduced and explained are:
- Ethics
- Political Philosophy
- Aesthetics
- Epistemology
- Philosophy of Mind
- Philosophy of language
- Metaphysics
- Philosophy of Science
- Philosophy of Religion
- The Meaning of Life.
This second edition has been revised throughout, with chapters being brought up to date and improved. There is also a new section on the philosophy of language and the addition of 'spotlight' questions at the end of each section, as well as an updated Introduction and Glossary of Key Terms.
An outstanding textbook written by experienced teachers, What is this thing called Philosophy? is ideal for students approaching philosophy for the first time.
