Description:
Everyone sometimes asks the core questions of philosophy about the origin of the world and man, the distinction between good and evil and the meaning of existence. In this introduction to philosophy, these three questions are in the foreground. In philosophy, you first seek to gain insight into how the worlds of man are put together. Then you want to gain insight into the right way to get by with your actions. Finally, you aim to gain a correct insight into the meaning of life. This publication therefore focuses on the philosophical questions of in-sight, out-sight and meaning-sight. Our society is constantly coming up against its ecological, economic and social limits. Philosophy thus proves to be useful not only time and again to obtain a rational answer to the question of insight, perspective and meaning-sight in life. Isn't philosophy also the necessary condition for this? A fascinating story of more than 2500 years of thinking, in which the reader can determine that he or she can now make a contribution.
