This is a riveting introduction to the essential issues of Western philosophy, and six of its greatest thinkers. What can I know? What can I hope for? What should I do? These are three questions that - however much we immerse ourselves in the hustle and bustle of everyday life - we cannot, in the end, escape. They impose themselves, not just in times of personal crisis, but at odd moments and in varied ways. Even those who are not inclined to philosophy or reflective thought will feel their force on occasion. Whether we develop satisfactory answers or not, wrestling with such questions is part of what it means to be human. In this excellent introduction to the essential issues that have preoccupied philosophers for centuries, Michael Kellogg provides fresh an engaging portraits of the greatest thinkers on each of these questions: Plato and Wittgenstein on the possibility of philosophical knowledge; Kant and Nietzsche on the existence of God; and Aristotle and Heidegger on human virtue.
