Beschreibung

"Philosophy for AS and A2 is the definitive textbook for students of Advanced Subsidiary or Advanced Level courses, structured directly around the specification of the AQA - the only exam board to offer these courses. Following a lively foreword by Nigel Warburton, author of "Philosophy: The Basics, a team of experienced teachers devote a chapter each to the six themes covered by the syllabus:
AS
* Theory of Knowledge
* Moral Philosophy
* Philosophy of Religion
A2
* Philosophy of Mind
* Political Philosophy
* Philosophy of Science
Each of the six themed chapters includes:
* A list of key concepts, to introduce students to the topic
* Bite-size sections corresponding exactly to the syllabus topics
* Actual past exam questions from previous years
* Suggested discussion questions to promote debate
* Text-boxes with helpful summaries, case-studies and examples
* An annotated further reading list directing students towards the best articles, books and websites
* A comprehensive glossary, providing a handy reference point
There is a final chapter on essay writing and exam preparation, designed to help students get to grips with the examination board requirements.
