Common-Sense Philosophy uses our natural reasoning capacity that makes judgements about statements or propositions. Reasoning is a starting point, as it is impossible to prove reason using our reason. our common-sense notions are a feature of our nature. Our common-sense oes not challenge whether we can think; rather it uses our thinking in exploring important questions. e current volume explores the four most important philosophical issues: What is our nature? How do we think and reason? How ought we live, including moral questions? How do these issues relate to society at large, the political realm? Common-sense philosophy has been elaborated throughout human written history. Socrates used human examples to explore concepts of justice. Jesus' parables achieved similar e ects. e Greco-Roman stoics, Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius, used common-place examples in their eaching. omas Reid of the Scottish enlightenment discussed the accession of knowledge by how our sense organs work. The great 20th century Christian philosopher, C. S. Lewis, lectured in common-sense language. William James and the utilitarians; and the more modern analytical philosophers employed similar techniques in their writing.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Craig studied liberal arts, chemistry, and philosophy at Colgate University, graduated from Northwestern Medical School, and spent his 38 years of medical practice, teaching, and research at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine. He was recognized for his academic, scholarly, and clinical abilities. Deriving much of his interest in philosophy during his years at Colgate, he continued his philosophical studies throughout his medical career. His philosophic wisdom has been enhanced deeply by his interactions in his professional life. Since being an Emeritus Professor of Medicine, he has written the philosophical essays published here. The essays are couched in the great Greek intellectual tradition, especially Aristotle and Socrates.
