In this small book, Russell offers a clear and enlightening introduction to a field of knowledge that is frequently incorrectly thought to be too complex for laypeople. He has focused primarily on philosophical issues where he believes it is feasible to offer helpful and uplifting advice. Because of this, the theory of knowing takes considerably more room than metaphysics, and several hotly contested philosophical issues are just briefly touched upon. The writing is clear for the ordinary reader who has no prior knowledge of the subject, is brief, and is free of technical jargon.
