In his Inquiring Essays, Russell argues that many of the problems plaguing the world arise from people putting their beliefs ahead of their reason. However, putting reason before faith will prevent many terrifying events that may arise from religious and political passions. Many painful events that took place on the world stage after Russell expressed these thoughts showed how accurate the author's philosophical concerns were.

In this period when we are under the overwhelming attack of 21st century capitalism, Russell's skepticism and his defense of the independence of reason still maintain their validity. By conveying his thoughts in a clear and understandable language, Russell takes us on a journey through philosophical problems such as freedom, happiness, emotions, morality and beliefs that affect our daily lives, and makes logical suggestions. “What would be the effect of the spread of rational skepticism?” he asks with mischievous sarcasm. he asks.

Questioning Essays, which have been published many times by TUBITAK Popular Science Publications, will be enjoyed by all readers of all age groups who are interested in natural sciences and social sciences as well as philosophy.
