Philosophy is the faculty of wonder. Which is very common in children because they are not used to the world as we grown ups are.

Philosophers try to find out the reasons behind man's life as to what is nature and its relationship with man. They ponder in the nature and seek to find out the hidden realities of it. In other words we can say that, human endeavour to understand the purpose of his life and the connection between him and environment is philosophy. |
Answer is:
Philosophy is simply defined as "Love of Wisdom"...

Its more than Easy
yes sure!
its so simple once u have read these notes u will feel no requirement for second reading simple maths rules apply in "symbolic logic" if u have read journalism "fallacies" are same as tools of propaganda logic is based on reasoning, reasoning is composed of argument, argument is a compound of propositions, proposition is of two types premise and conclusion. an argument with 3 propositions is called as syllogism and also known as Aristotelian logic in syllogism there are 2 premises and one conclusion. this is all about philosophy paper 1 if u can understand ur paper is done in addition to these topics do read Muslim's contribution to logic with special reference to al farabi bu ali sina and others..... Philosophy is not any type of rocket science..... :) |
