An Intelligent Person’s Guide to Philosophy

Cover image via Amazon

By Roger Scruton
(Penguin, 1999)

Taking the discipline beyond theory and "intellectualism," Scruton presents philosophy in an empirical, accessible, and practical light. The result is not a history of the field but a vivid, energetic, and personal account to guide the reader making his or her own venture into philosophy.

About the author

Category: Books by the Fellows

True, the artist can, out of his own experience, tell the common man a great deal about the fulfillment of man’s nature in living; but he can produce only the most unsatisfactory kind of reply if he is consistently asked the wrong question. And an incapacity for asking the right question has grown, in our time and country, to the proportions of an endemic disease.
