The purpose of this engaging book is twofold: to explain and
justify the primary objects and methods of the discipline of
philosophy, and to show how philosophy is relevant to a person's
life and happiness. Both purposes are implied in the idea of wisdom
in its theoretical and existential dimensions. Philosophy is the
'love of wisdom,' and wisdom involves coming into a right relation
to the world of beauty, goodness, and truth.
