Description
Bryan Magee's Ultimate Questions is a deeply personal exploration of the human condition. We find ourselves in the world without knowing how we got here, and our minds are drawn to understanding who we are and the world around us.
Reason can take us so far, but mystery remains. Faith may seem justified when our minds and senses are baffled, yet it is not knowledge. Magee argues that we have no way of fathoming our own natures or finding definitive answers to life's big questions. Instead, he urges us to be the mapmakers of what is intelligible.
This thought-provoking work traces a tradition of philosophical thought and shows how it can enrich our lives and transform our understanding of existence. With eloquence and clarity, Magee invites readers to consider the meaning of life and how we should live in the face of uncertainty.
