Publisher's Synopsis
From ancient times to the present - How Philosophy changes everyday life
Philosophy has had a long and sometimes rocky career. It is older than 2,000 years and ranges from antiquity through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance periods to modern times and the present day. To fit 2,000 years into a single volume is impossible, since there are so many different directions that a person would not understand in his lifetime.
The contents of the book are:
- The basic principles of philosophy
- The disciplines of philosophy
- Practical Philosophy
- Introduction & Conclusion
This book has therefore concentrated on the most important aspects of philosophy with its twelve disciplines, which form the basis for all further positions. Some disciplines have survived from antiquity to the present day and therefore represent very important aspects of philosophy, while other disciplines are comparatively young, including some of the currents that are particularly important for the present.
Not only does philosophy play a major role in politics and governance, but it is also the foundation of any science. This book therefore aims to explain why precisely this aspect is overlooked and sometimes even ignored by so many people, even though even psychology can be traced back to philosophy.
This book is thus intended to help those who want to try to broaden their philosophical horizons. The first small introduction to the world of philosophy. Have fun!
