The aim of this book is to introduce students to methodologies,
strategies, heuristics and formal tools which are typically
employed in contemporary analytic philosophy. This helpful resource
gets the reader to engage with the analytical skills required to
master postgraduate studies in philosophy. In conjunction with
analysing texts, reflecting on arguments and trying to solve
problems, the book will help instil in students the kind of
understanding, knowledge and skills they need. More specifically,
students will have a better grasp of how to pose a succinct
research question and then critically pursue the proposed topic by
engaging with relevant literature, reflecting on philosophical
presuppositions, selecting suitable argumentative strategies and
defend a preferred view against objections. Topics covered include:
The nature and character of arguments Conceptual analysis
Analytical truths Logic and language Models of explanation and
reduction Strategies and dialects Rational intuitions. Providing a
comprehensive and accessible introduction to philosophical methods
this text is a must-read for undergraduate or postgraduate students
studying philosophy of methods or those studying postgraduate
philosophy with a background in a different disciplie.
