Deep thought

SWISS Cottage Library was once known for its book collection of philosophy.
         I heard this was not as impressive as it sounds. Perhaps this is a myth: the reason was that in the old days each library shared various parts of the alphabet to locate at which library the books were kept throughout the London borough of Camden. Swiss Cottage's share included the letter 'p', so it became renowned for books on the subject of philosophy.
        Anyway, however it got to Swiss Cottage library, the collection is impressive.
         Lately I've been reading books by Roger Trigg, founder of the British Philosophical Association, which are of course at Swiss Cottage.
        You can't help thinking the professor has an exceptional grasp of reality.
        I like very much his common touch, easily understandable. He opens one of his books with, 'A moral argument is often stopped in its tracks when someone refuses to consider a position by saying that "that is just your opinion."'
        The books goes on to tell you how he thinks you might get out of that corner. It also nicely isolates many other arguments, true and false, which will either reassure you that you are on the right track in your view of life or suprise you in that you didn't think deeply enough about something others are throwing at you.
