Philosophy is a way of thinking about just about anything. It asks big questions, such as "how can I be good?" or "what makes something beautiful?" Using lively examples, humorous illustrations and simple thought experiments, this book opens up the world of philosophy to children and adults with enquiring minds. Chapters in this book include: - What is philosophy? - A world of philosophy? - Doing philosophy - How to argue - Thought experiments - Why do philosophy? Knowledge How do we know anything about the world around us - can we be sure that we know anything at all? The mind Is your mind somehow different from your body, and are you even in control of it? Beauty and art What is beauty, and what is art? And why is it so hard to answer these questions? God If there is a God, is it possible to prove that he or she exists? Politics Are there any rules that everyone can agree on that would make a society a fair and happy place for everyone to live in? How to be good If you're not sure of the right thing to do, can the tools of philosophy help you find an answer? Time and Identity Everything changes with time - but how much can something change and still count as the same thing? What is time, anyway? Logic and language What are the rules of philosophy, and how can you follow them if people don't agree on what words themselves actually mean? The meaning of life Is philosophy merely a way asking questions about the world - or can it also be a way of life itself? Can it answer the ultimate question: what is the meaning of life? What next?
