The structure of the book mirrors many university philosophy courses - using the work of key philosophers as a springboard to a discussion of all the main areas of philosophy. It also employs the 'breakthrough method', which is designed specifically to focus on and overcome problems that students face.
For example:
- 'I find it difficult to remember what I've read.' Solution: this book includes end-of-chapter questions and summaries, and flashcards of key points are available on-line and as apps.
- 'Most books mention important other sources, but I can never find them in time.' Solution: this book summarises key texts and case studies, complete with fully referenced quotes ready to use in your essay or exam.
- 'Lots of introductory books turn out to cover totally different topics than my course.' Solution: this book is written by a current university lecturer who understands what students are expected to know.
