Book Synopsis
This introduction to philosophy argues that the best way to learn about the human condition is to tackle its problems head-on. The author demonstrates that philosophy is an indispensible key to understanding life and challenges readers to try out ideas and raise possible objections to them.

Trade Review
"A very well written book...great for introducing the topics to an intro-level class. It touches on key issues and brings up the relevant points, yet all in relatively short and easy-to-understand chapters. Would be a great supplement for a course in metaphysics."--Jack Bowen, DeAnza College
