People in the world have an interest in everyday questions but then you have people that have questions that science hasn't figured out. Questions that science hasn't figured out have a very broad spectrum and it always interesting to hear other people's ideas or opinions about these questions. Questions like How can I deceive myself?, Is death to be feared?, What fills ups space?. These are all quite broad and philosophy is something everyone seems to know. Questions like the ones above are answered by the Research Professor of Philosophy in North Carolina, Simon Blackburn, he is also one of the most distinguished philosophers of our time. This book gets a 5/5 from me! ( ) no reviews | add a review
In What Do We Really Know?
