The Problems of Philosophy

Meer over het boek

Exploring the limitations of philosophy, Bertrand Russell presents a concise overview of key philosophical issues and historical perspectives in this 1912 work. He argues that philosophy often fails to provide definitive answers, emphasizing the distinction between knowledge gained through direct experience and that obtained through description. Engaging with the ideas of prominent thinkers like Aristotle and Kant, Russell critically assesses their contributions while highlighting the universal context of philosophical problems and our understanding of reality.
