This book provides an accessible introduction to the work of some of the world’s greatest philosophers, and shows how their ideas have shaped the way in which we all think. It covers the main areas of philosophy, including the philosophy of mind, religion, politics and science. Teach Yourself Philosophy uses examples and situations to present ideas clearly to the reader, and defines the key words throughout the text to aid the reader in their understanding of the subject. It also includes the differences between Eastern and Western Philosophy, whole chapters on the Philosophy of language and Feminist Philosophy, and comprehensive sections on logic and aesthetics.
