Philosophy explores and critically examines the deeper meanings of human life and
the world in which we live. It studies the foundations of all forms of knowledge and
human activity and the interconnections among them. Its studies include the nature
of existence, knowledge, and value; human reasoning and its limits; art, science,
literature, and the human condition; and justice and the nature of the good. It unifies
these diverse topics by concentrating on the fundamental nature of human experience
and cognition as well as the conceptual foundations of the sciences.
