| This is an introduction to philosophical ideas about knowledge and the self. The book takes the form of a personal meditation; it is one person’s attempt to reflect philosophically upon vital aspects of his existence. It shows how profound philosophy can swiftly emerge from intense private reflection upon details of one’s life, and as such will help the reader take the first steps towards philosophical selfunderstanding. Along the way, readers will encounter moments of puzzlement, then clarity, followed by more perplexity and further insights, then—finally—some philosophical peace of mind. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
