Exploring Islamic Philosophy presents a lively introduction to the Islamic philosophical tradition by focusing on over a thousand years of Islamic philosophical theory and praxis, from Spain to Iran. The book begins with some basic definitions of the subject matter and then moves into a careful presentation of the most important Islamic philosophers’ expositions of being, God, knowledge, psychology, political theory, virtue, death and the afterlife. The volume ends by suggesting ways in which Islamic philosophical ideas can inform and invigorate contemporary discussions on ethics, gender, and ecology.
