Abstract: The article is a review of Lydia Amir’s book “Taking Philosophy Seriously” (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2018). The book synthesizes academic and practical philosophy, initiates a meta-philosophical dialogue. The author adheres to the melioristic view of philosophy that rethinks the approach to philosophy, reinvigorates its academic teaching and secures the respectability of its practitioners outside the academic environment. The book considers the main issues of a “serious” attitude to philosophy on the basis of which there can be opened new prospects for philosophical practice.
