His approach is bottom-up and seeks to clear up our confusion over the role that intuitions play in philosophical argumentation. In this groundbreaking work, the reader takes delivery of not only how to contend with deep philosophical problems but how to generate the right sort of questions to ask for one to be \"doing\" philosophy. Anyone from undergraduate to specialist with an interest in metaphilosophy will benefit from Werner's discussion.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoseph Ulatowski, University of Waikato, New Zealand\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKonrad Werner works as adjunct professor at the University of Warsaw, Poland.
