Publisher's Summary

From Socrates to Jean-Paul Sartre and dualism to existentialism, discover the key philosophers and theories that have shaped the way we view the world.

Demystifying the key ideas of the world's greatest philosophers and exploring all of the most important branches of thought, including philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, and feminist philosophy, this book is the perfect introduction to the history of philosophy.

A clear and accessible guide to philosophy, How Philosophy Works uses jargon-free text to demystify fundamental concepts. Covering everything from ethics to epistemology and phenomenology, the book presents the ideas and theories of key philosophical traditions and philosophers - from Plato and Socrates to Nietzsche and Wittgenstein via Kant - in a novel, easy-to-understand way.

By tackling life's "big questions", it will help you to look at the world in an entirely new way.

With its unique approach and clear, authoritative text, How Philosophy Works is the perfect introduction to philosophy and the ideal companion to DK's The Philosophy Book in the Big Ideas series.
