Richard Fumerton

What Is Philosophy? (eBook, PDF)

Produktbeschreibung

Over the course of nine engaging and accessible chapters, Fumerton shows that answering fundamental philosophical questions requires one to take a radical first-person perspective that divorces the truth conditions of philosophical claims from the kind of contingent truths investigated by the empirical sciences.
