| Abstract
|
:
|
Warburton (philosophy, Open U.) offers a relatively non-technical introduction to philosophy. Each of the eight chapters takes up a topic--God, right and wrong, animals, art, science, appearance and reality, mind, politics--and presents short synopses of different problems and classical arguments, controversies, intellectual movements, and mysteries. A notable exception to these topics is logic. This fifth edition has a new chapter on animals, as well other chapter revisions. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
