"Thinking Philosophically: An Introduction to the Great Debates presents a highly accessible introduction to five of the most fundamental debates in world philosophy. * Introduces five fundamental philosophical debates in a highly engaging and accessible manner that invites readers to enter the discussion themselves * Features chapters that each consider a central philosophical question dialectically by exploring the conflicting approaches of different philosophers * Argues that the work of philosophers like Plato and Rousseau is just as relevant today as it was in their own time * Provides a structure that encourages readers to apply philosophical principles to their everyday lives." -- Provided by publisher. |
