Natural Ideas

The great challenge for all of us is to make sense of our lives. Natural Ideas is a systematic account of philosophical ideas, based on a modern scientific view of the world, and our place within it. It gives a clear picture of who we are, how we think, the limits of knowledge, what exists and how it is structured, what is important to us, and the principles of a good community. Each of these topics is explained and evaluated, and important alternative views are assessed. The book is suitable for beginners, but also of interest to any philosopher who is seeking a full overview of the subject.
