Philosophical Propositions: An Introduction to Philosophy - encuadernado, tapa blanda

<P><i>Philosophical Propositions</i> provides a fresh and lucid introduction to key philosophical problems in a classic style. Designed for students coming to philosophy for the first time, Jonathan Westphal introduces readers to the key problems in philosophy, encouraging them to work through those problems themselves. Each chapter considers a key philosophical problem: The Nature of a Philosophical Problem; Basic Concepts of Logic and Philosophy; The Problem of Evil; The Existence of God; Reality; Certainty; Time; Personal Identity; The Mind-Body Problem; Freewill and Determinism; The Meaning of Life? By asking students to consider key philosophical questions such as "are people free?," "can God's existence be proved?" and "how is the mind related to the body," this book provides a firm grounding in essential philosophical problems for students at any level.</P>
