What are the questions and puzzles that philosophers have tried to unravel for many centuries? How can we look at philosophy not as a series of remote questions, but rather as issues that lie deep within ourselves?

By presenting relevant readings by important contemporary and historical philosophers, Readings on the Ultimate Questions encourages readers to examine the main problems in philosophy. This book is part of the highly acclaimed Penguin Academics Series, hailed for high quality books that are brief and inexpensive.
