Philosophy


Philosophy (the original Greek word means ‘the love of wisdom’) is praised as ‘science of all sciences’ considering its antiquity in the history of systematic studies. Philosophy is a conceptual study which studies abstract concepts related to various other subject areas, like Philosophy of Science, Philosophy of law and Political Philosophy. At the same time, Philosophy studies certain areas such as logic, metaphysics, ethics and epistemology that are unique to the subject itself. Recently philosophy extended its boundaries to the new territories such as environment (Environmental Philosophy), psychology (Philosophical Psychology) and Peace Studies (Philosophy of Human Rights).
