Philosophy: A Modern Approach - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The study of general and fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind and language is known as philosophy. There are three traditional divisions of philosophy namely, natural, moral and metaphysical philosophy. Natural philosophy deals with the study of the constitution and processes of transformation in the physical world. Moral philosophy deals with the study of goodness, right and wrong, justice and virtue. Metaphysical philosophy focuses on the study of existence, causation, God, logic, forms, and other abstract objects. However, in the modern scenario, this division of philosophy has changed. Natural philosophy has split into the various natural sciences, such as astronomy, physics, chemistry and cosmology. Moral philosophy has given rise to the social sciences and metaphysical philosophy has facilitated formal sciences such as logic, mathematics and philosophy of science. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of philosophy. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. This book is a vital tool for all researching and studying philosophy.
