Publisher Description

Be an instant expert on philosophy and Bluff Your Way with all those who think about thinking. No effort required, just a sense of humour. From the cynics to semantics, and from props to propositions here's everything you need to know to be thought to be in the know.

Extracts from the book:

Historical forces

No-one knows why philosophy started when it did: ambitious bluffers of a Marxist bent could try to account for it in terms of an inexorable dialectic of historical forces, but we wouldn't recommend it.

This and That

Of course, any sensible theory is neither one thing nor the other; and it's generally safe to say something to that effect without fear of having to say just how much of one, or the exact proportion of the other.

This is a Bluffer's Guide; Bluffer's Guides, Bluffer's Guide, Bluffer's, and Bluff Your Way are Registered Trademarks.

"This is actually a reasonable introduction into the subject with the bonus that it is also very funny"
