How to Train Your Dog According to PHILOSOPHY and Break Down the Main Ideas and Concepts of This Science

Popular British author Anthony McGowan explores the foundations of Western philosophy in a series of imaginary dialogues with his restless dog Monty. Readers who have never ventured into the paths of philosophy or wish to refresh their knowledge will greatly... appreciate this enjoyable excursion with a friendly guide and his faithful companion. From Aristotle to Derrida, from Euclid to Voltaire, from Seneca to Leibniz, from Socrates to Kant — all the key ideas of great thinkers will find a place in this captivating discussion! «The first three walks are related to the discussion of the philosophy of morality and ethics. In the following walks, we will talk about the concept of free will and logic. We will then discuss metaphysics: those tangled questions about the nature of reality and existence. Next, our path will lead us through epistemology, or the theory of knowledge. Four walks are dedicated to the discussion of the philosophy of science. Finally, in the last chapter on the meaning of life, a brief overview of some arguments for the existence of God is provided. Although this extensive structure is thematic, within the discussion of each subject, we will consider what great philosophers have said about it. I hope that such a presentation will help the reader not only to understand the problem but also to form an idea of the history of the development of philosophical thought». (Anthony McGowan)
