Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This is a somewhat unconventional introduction to philosophy, with over 400 cartoons by the author designed to make teaching and learning more fun. Organized by individual theory, this lighthearted book can be used as a core text, or might supplement separate paperbacks or an anthology.
