Philosophy

Professor Craig, who teaches philosophy at Cambridge, gives the listener a lively and personal introduction to philosophy. Using an informal style, the author presents philosophy as a means of understanding ourselves, our world and how it works, and how we should interact with it. Using examples from numerous philosophers and other intellectuals, he shows us how each of them addresses these concerns in different ways. Maurice West does well in performing this work. He has a somewhat staccato delivery that is quite lively for such an academic subject. He reads as one who enjoys the discussion and the discovery of the concepts presented. M.T.F.
