This brief and engaging book on philosophic inquiry shows readers why and how philosophic thought about fundamental problems in epistemology, ontology and moral theory can be of great help to us in our attempt to live “the good life” —characterized (in part) by a deeper understanding of the world within and around us. It encourages higher-order thought—the critical examination of views, conceptual analysis, integrative thought, and the evaluation of arguments—and shows what an important and mind-transforming activity philosophic inquiry can be. Chapter topics include knowledge, reality, the mental and the physical, self, God, free will, value and morality, death, and the meaning of life.For anyone who wants to “make sense of it all.”
