Book Reviews of Philosophy: The Basics
Book Review: Appreciate good writing
Summary: 5 Stars
Nigel Warburton says early in this book that one reason people have difficulty with philosophy is that many philosophers do not write well. Warburton writes very well, in plain language and very clearly, avoiding jargon that tends to obscure. This book has illuminated a number of philosophical issues for me--I think I actually understand the issues and the approach that philosophers take in analyzing them. It's similar to mathematics with its different approaches to solving problems.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning how philosophers work.
