AN INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY Perennial Principles of The Classical Realist Tradition by DANIEL J. SULLIVAN

AN INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY is intended for the general reader as well as for the student. Its primary purpose is to present the elements of philosophy with simplicity and clarity in order to arouse that sense of wonder which Aristotle says is the beginning of the love of wisdom. This well-structured overview begins with an historiclal study of philosophy, tracing the evolution of philosophical problems from their simplest origins, and continues with an analysis of the more concrete problems about man himself. The more abstract problems of man and his relation to the world around him make up the final study of this book. Paper.
