Philosophy for LifeA ? shows that we canA ? improve our perspective on the world and our place in it by doing philosophy everyday. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This tome is more generally focussed upon philosophy in everyday life. It is thought provoking and, the only section that I couldn't follow was the last section on abstract art. Not that I am against the genre, I just couldn't follow the logic of the argument.
Other than that, BRILLIANT. ( )
