This is a survey of the development of Western philosophic thought. A clear sense is gained of the relative richness and poverty of philosophic interpretation of different periods.

Some of the major problems of philosophy are examined: appearance versus reality, determinism versus free will, knowledge and existence, bodymind relations, truth and error, good and evil, space and time, reality and what we can know.
