Book 72 - Gary Hayden "You Kant Make It Up"

Gary Hayden "You Kant Make It Up" (Oneworld Publications)




This is another book vaguely like the books of philosophy  from the graphic styled ones i have read recently with a very similar structure and tone. It's very simple to understand for any reader or those starting out on a philosophy degree.

On the other hand, it's frustratingly simple and repetitive for someone who knows a good bit about philosophy already, however i would still recommend it to beginners. It's well laid out, too; you can skip through it for the stuff you're interested in, letting one idea lead onto another. There's a touch of humour in the whole treatment of it, which might help as well.

With a title like that, it's got to be pretty humorist. :p

Looks interesting! I'll look into that for my 14-year-old stepdaughter. (Not to mention, myself! I have a degree in philosophy but that was about a zillion years ago. I could do with some brushing up.Especially now that there's another budding philosopher in the family.)

Thanks!

I enjoy philosophy and will probably check this out.

I read a book about the love lives of famous philosophers a while back. It was pretty funny and a little sad.
