Inhaltsangabe

Discover the enduring question behind every thinking mind: what is philosophy, and how do we approach truth? This introduction explores philosophy as the lifelong search for reality, not a stack of dogmas. It explains why philosophy matters, how it differs from science, and how each thinker must experience it for themselves.

Philosophy is presented as a universal, ever-present pursuit that begins with questions children ask and continues through history. It examines how philosophy relates to science, politics, and daily life, and it shows how the search for meaning can guide both individuals and societies.


  • What philosophy asks: the meaning of being, self, and knowledge

  • How philosophy grows from free inquiry and personal experience

  • Ways to study philosophy without losing sight of the world it arose from

  • Responsibilities of thinking critically in a complex modern era



Ideal for readers curious about the foundations of thought, this edition illuminates how philosophy remains relevant today and how a thoughtful life can emerge from rigorous reflection.
