Metaphors by Pedro Alcalde uses art and visual analogy to make philosophical ideas easier to approach. Drawing on concepts from different periods and traditions, the book translates abstract questions about human experience and existence into images, colours and shapes that can be considered at a glance and revisited over time.

Key features

  • Explores 24 philosophical metaphors.
  • Uses visual art to introduce ideas that can otherwise feel highly abstract.
  • Draws on philosophical thought from different periods and parts of the world.
  • Designed as an accessible entry point rather than a dense academic text.
