Philosophy for Beginners

Humans and Other Beings

By: Max Charlesworth,Maxwell John Charlesworth

Philosophy for Beginners is a terrifically readable introduction to a broad understanding of philosophy. Ostensibly written to introduce secondary students to philosophical theory, it is in fact an engaging read for anyone who wants to know more about this sometimes intimidating subject. At all times, it is entertaining, inspiring and provoking.The work encourages discussions on fundamental questions of humanity with a clarity of thought and with a degree of open-mindedness allied with a desire to think for oneself. By introducing the ideas of various philosophers throughout history the author demonstrates the living nature of philosophy and how it is central to much of the larger 'thought' behind the evolution of western civilisation.Best of all is the author's repeated assertion that all ideas are open to be discussed, disagreed with and even completely refuted. It is a liberating stance that will appeal to many readers.

Religious Inventions

Four Essays

By: Max Charlesworth

Many scholars assume that all genuine religions are basically similar and that it is possible to define the sphere of religion in terms of the "sacred." In his latest book, Max Charlesworth argues that we must take the diversity of religions as a primary fact. Any religion is an active response to a revelation of the divine, and human beings receive these revelations, interpret them and develop them in a variety of ways. Charlesworth illustrates his thesis with examples ranging from Australian Aboriginal religion, to twentieth-century Roman Catholicism.
