Have you ever wondered about the meaning of the term "knowledge" and about the conditions under which valid knowledge is possible? Whenever you try to logically answer such questions, you are engaging in philosophy.

"The Conditions of Knowledge" summarizes and analyzes many important works of eastern and western philosophy. These works, in addition to examining the nature and limits of human knowledge, provide insight into many different philosophical approaches and schools of thought, including Confucianism, Utilitarianism, Pragmatism, and Existentialism.

Author Alex Scott helps you to look more closely at a number of questions which have concerned the world's most influential philosophers. These questions include:

.What is justice? .What is the highest good toward which human beings can strive? .What is the difference between the world of appearance and the world of reality? .Should moral judgments be based only on logical reasoning, or should they also be based on emotions and feelings?

From Plato and Aristotle to Schopenhauer and Rawls, "The Conditions of Knowledge" discusses the major themes of a wide range of ethical, epistemological, metaphysical, and religious writings, providing a useful resource for students, teachers, and anyone with a general interest in philosophy.
