Grimes asks a good question: "Who is a philosopher?" Before we can answer it, we must first answer, "What is philosophy?"

The truth is there is no consensus on this--although there are ways to approach such a consensus. Etymologically, the word philosophy means "a love of wisdom," but then what is wisdom? Is wisdom different from, say, science? Is philosophy, then, something different from science, or is it itself a scientific practice?
