Philosophy Now  |  OctNov 2021
Issue 146 takes a long cool look at the nature of reality, a preoccupation of philosophers since the earliest times. What do we even mean by ‘reality’? Is there any way we can access reality directly, through our senses? Is mathematics part of the fabric of the universe, or is it a recent human invention? What about the laws of nature – are they real, or made up?
Also in this 68 page colour issue, Sailee Khurjekar explains the philosophical ideas behind Japanese gardens, Charlie White asks whether moral philosophy actually makes anyone a better person, and we have special feature on veganism, with provocative arguments pro and con. Plus our regular columnists Professors Peter Adamson, Sean Moran and Raymond Tallis, and an interview with Professor Terry Pinkard, who corrects some misconceptions about Hegel’s political philosophy. For an urgent reality check, subscribe again to Philosophy Now!
