Philosophy : an illustrated history of thought / Tom Jackson. by Jackson, Tom, 1972- New York : Shelter Harbor Press, c2014. Subjects Philosophy -- History. ISBN:  9780985323073 : Series:  Ponderables (Series) Description:  144 p. : col. ill. ; 29 cm. + 1 folded timeline. Requests:  0 Summary:  Here is the essential guide to philosophy. Philosophy: An Illustrated History of Thought is an authoritative yet fun reference book and timeline on the compilation of human knowledge. Both art and science attempt answers to the big questions -- what is truth, how to be good, and where did we come from? -- but philosophy is the interpreter we use to verify it all. We need it to make sense of the simplest math and the most esoteric poetry, and it has even created a science of information itself. We begin our journey at the boundary of myth and reason, and along the way we visit the thoughts of the most high-flying of minds who could see that nothing, not ever-changing words, limitless numbers, or mystical visions, were beyond examination. Philosophy contains 100 chronological articles that recount the inspirations of great thinkers including Epicurus, St. Anselm, David Hume, Friedrich Nietzsche, David Chalmers, and Nick Bostrom. Far from being the work of dead geniuses, Philosophy is today at the heart of our battle to make sense of the quantum Universe. Philosophy embraces the paradox, and we present the most mind-boggling conundrums the last 3,000 years has to offer: Includes summaries of the fields of philosophy, setting out the basics in jargon-busting and lighthearted text. The life stories behind the great philosophers give further insight to their work. Philosophy also contains a 12-page Timeline History of Philosophy.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja includes fold-out timeline Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 109 Ja   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Jackson + fold out timeline Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja no timeline Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja   Damaged Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja + Folded timeline Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 109 Ja + TIMELINE INSERT Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
