A Beginner's Guide to Reality is an introduction to philosophy for
people who don't read philosophy. Jim Baggott's sources range from
Aristotle to The Matrix. He examines the major developments in
Western philosophical thought on the nature of reality, at each of
three levels social, perceptual and physical. (Do money, colour, or
photons exist?) The book systematically investigates these levels,
peeling away the assumptions we make about those parts of reality
that we take for granted.
