Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The Bluffer's Guide to Philosophy (my main reference book) put it rather neatly when discussing Existentialism: 'Analytic philosophers are inclined to despise Existentialism for not being sufficiently analytic: Existentialists are inclined to despise Anglo-Saxon analytic philosophers for simply not being sufficiently.' "
--The Editor, Philosophy Now
"The word 'philosophy' may turn you off immediately. Take heart - and arm yourself with a copy of this book. Behind all the quips is a firm grounding in the subject."
--The Keswick Reminder
"Bluffer's Guides are a quick read and chock full of the basic information on any subject that's needed to pass yourself off as knowledgeable. "

From the Back Cover
A common misconception is that philosophy is something like religion really. A good line to take in the face of this is to observe that philosophy is concerned with the undermining and questioning of dogmas, whereas religion is all about accepting and supporting them.
