The Problems of Philosophy



Bertrand Russell's words recently filled a post on the importance of philosophy. The other day I decided to pick up of the source text, his The Problems of Philosophy. It's a very accessible tour of the questions that have puzzled philosophers through the ages. It should be easy enough for high school students, and it's going on a list of books I'll recommend to my children when they're older. Russell well demonstrates the place of philosophy and its importance as an intellectual pursuit.
