Description

We open philosophy by looking at what the sages of the ages have to say about 6 themes: happiness, love, the existence of God, immortality, time, & freedom. The second half shows the tools of philosophy; 7 kinds of causes: self-reference, logical fallacies & the problem of reductionism; distinctions between presence & absence, one & many, problem & mystery; confusions that arise among kinds of reasoning & between work & play, etc. Most chapters end with questions for classroom use. A full bibliography is included. The work is both traditional & up-beat. Some authors outside both western & classroom philosophy are included: Sankara on happiness, Carson McCullers on love, Avicenna on immortality, Einstein & Newton on time, etc. Without tedium, suddenly one finds oneself conversant with Heidegger on time, Epicurus on happiness, Russell on self-reference, Popper & Duhem on science, Haggl & Marx on alienation & religious concepts of divine causality. The book is a prolection or distillation of intellectual juices. It occurs at the intersection of two kinds of readers - the beginner or self-tutor (autodidact) & the student/professor of introductory philosophy.
