This fourth edition of the text presents the issues and conflicts
inherent in philosophy. Among the book's many features is a new
chapter on the problems of ethics, including the philosophy of law
and of society, the nature of moral judgement and theories of
normative ethics. This extensive revision includes new emphasis on
the philosophy of science and problems of personal identity, as
well as different approaches to a variety of issues. Exercises and
selected readings are presented at the end of each chapter. The
most significant change to this edition is to respond to criticisms
regarding the omission in the third edition of the famous opening
chapter. A brand new chapter, Words and the World, replaces this in
the fourth edition - which now features a large number of examples
and illustrative dialogues. The rest of the text has been
thoroughly revised and updated to take account of recent
developments in some areas of philosophy.
