What does philosophy actually do? Jonas Pfister lets the reader look into the philosophical toolbox: How to argue convincingly? How do you analyse terms? What different patterns of argumentation (such as transcendental arguments or thought experiments) or even erroneous patterns (such as infinite regress) are there? How does one argue in ethics (e.g. with analogy arguments while avoiding the "being-to-be" fallacy)? How does logic work? And how do you read a philosophical text anyway?
