Introductory Remarks
The word ‘philosophy’ is not easy to define, even though it belongs to everyday language. Yet, if we are going to understand what someone means by it, we do not require a definition. Nevertheless, though the term ‘philosophy’ is one with which we already have some familiarity, it is not a simple non-controversial matter. This may tend to startle the listeners, especially those just getting into philosophy, but some explanations would clear the fog of confusion that may be created by the nonprecision nature of our subject matter.
