This practical, hands-on introduction to philosophy uses jargon-free language and a step-by-step approach to engage readers in philosophical activity while clearly explaining the subject matter. Designed to foster independent thought, each chapter outlines learning aims, concepts, and skills, followed by graded exercises that guide readers through central philosophical topics. Readers are encouraged to respond to suggested answers and complete revision tasks, enabling them to 'do' philosophy by analyzing questions, distinguishing between analytic and continental approaches, and assessing arguments from philosophers like Plato, Descartes, Kant, and Nietzsche, as well as Aristotle, Duns Scotus, Mill, and de Beauvoir. The book features an extensive, fully cross-referenced glossary of names and philosophical terms that provides definitions and allows for quick recaps of previously introduced topics. Key features include a comprehensive introduction to major philosophical issues, a practical workbook format with summary boxes and exercises, engaging writing, the development of analytical skills alongside philosophical understanding, connections between analytic and continental traditions, and an encyclopedic reference glossary.
