書籍簡介

你們聽説過柏拉圖，但你們瞭解他的型相理論嗎?René笛卡爾的格言“我思故我在”到底是什麼意思?哲學與現代生活有何關聯?

借鑑了從古代到現在的標誌性哲學家的思想和話語，每一章都涉及一個特定的哲學理論。探究自由意志和決定論之間的衝突，馬基雅維利主義的政治概念，形而上學和認識論之間的區別，以及在這本為歷*聰明的頭腦而寫的通俗易懂的指南中辯證法到底是什麼。

You've heard of Plato, but do you understand his Theory of Forms? What does René Descartes' maxim 'I think, therefore I am' actually mean? And how is philosophy relevant to modern life?

Drawing on the thoughts and words of iconic philosophers from the ancient world right through to the present day, each chapter deals with a specific philosophical theory. Explore the conflict between free will and determinism, the political concept of Machiavellianism, the difference between metaphysics and epistemology, and what dialectics actually is in this accessibly-written guide to the smartest minds in history.
