Kārtējā grāmata, kuru sāku lasīt savā Ar filozofiju apsēstajā ērāTM. Pabeidzu diezgan ar mokām, bet tikai tāpēc, ka man bija slinkums pieķerties klāt un pabeigt. Tā citādi interesanti, dažādi jautājumi un atbildes, bet nedaudz ar skatu no reliģiskā viedokļa. Tas gan netraucēja, jo man, personīgi, arī reliģija interesē. Arī ne kristīgajiem šī grāmata varētu būt noderīga.

I'm in the process of reading this book, designed to provide curriculum material for the British Religious Education course for Sixth Formers.
Wonder if it is still being used, 20 years later.

Based on a brief peruse, recommended provisionally.

ini memang mengenai basic filsafat, tapi kemasannya tidak terlalu kaya basic. Dipenuhi gambar2 dan lukisan klasik bikin buku ini makin menarik. buku ini juga dipersembhkan untuk murid yang belajar filsafat di sekolah (tidak termasuk Indonesia, karena memang tidak ada hehe...). walau belum baca, saya udah ngga sabar ingin cepet baca...!!
