Books like Philosophy by Edward Craig


In "Philosophy," Edward Craig offers a clear, engaging introduction that demystifies the discipline. He argues that philosophy is not an alien pastime but a natural part of how we reason about life, reality, and knowledge. By tracing the work of historic figures such as Plato, Descartes, Hume, Hegel, Darwin, Mill, and de Beauvoir, Craig demonstrates how philosophical inquiry responds to real needs and events, and how its insights continue to influence our contemporary world.

The Virtual Window by 12690519|Anne Friedberg book cover

📘 The Virtual Window
 by Anne Friedberg

As we spend more time staring at TVs and computers - 'windows' full of moving images, texts, and icons - how the world is framed has become as important as what is in the frame. This book examines the window as metaphor, as architectural component, and as an opening to the dematerialised reality seen on the screen.

The Oxford companion to philosophy by 12724431|Ted Honderich book cover

📘 The Oxford companion to philosophy
 by Ted Honderich

The brave, large aim of this book is to bring philosophy together between two covers better than ever before. The philosophy brought together includes, first of all, the work of the great philosophers. As that term is commonly used, there are perhaps twenty of them. Philosophy as this book conceives it, secondly, includes all of its history in the English language, a history mainly of British and American thinkers. In this history there are many figures not so monumental as Locke, Berkeley, and Hume. Thirdly, the book does attend to histories of philosophy in other languages than English. A fourth part of the book, not an insignificant one, consists in about 150 entries on contemporary philsophers, the largest groups being American and British. - Preface.
