Who Am I?: An Introduction to Philosophy

By Timothy Eves

Who Am I? An Introduction to Philosophy introduces readers to the fascinating world of philosophy, exploring the most fundamental questions that human beings ask about themselves. The book serves as both a textbook and a novel, featuring academic rigor alongside a captivating storyline.

Throughout the book, readers explore compelling questions about the human experience, including: Does my life have meaning? Am I a creation of God? Do I have free will? Am I my mind, my body, or both? Am I the same person over time? Am I superior to other species? Am I good? Am I beautiful? Am I ignorant?

These inquiries are paired with clear explanations and accessible critiques of philosophical theories and arguments. They equip readers with the necessary knowledge and tools to approach philosophy with confidence and depth and invite readers to ponder the significance of life, free will, personal identity, the mind-body connection, and other essential philosophical topics. Reading comprehension questions and discussion questions at the end of each chapter encourage critical thinking and prompt meaningful discussion.

Recommended primarily for introductory philosophy courses, Who Am I? is designed to facilitate students' first foray into philosophical thought. It is also a valuable resource for any curious individual seeking to delve into philosophical inquiry for personal enrichment.
