Not intending to offer complete model essays, this book rather illustrates how to approach a subject of the philosophical kind. The 108 abstract topics in the book include some topics set in the UPSC Civil Services Main Examinations in the recent years. Essays asked in the UPSC CSE Mains 2023 and 2024 have also been incorporated. The discussion of each topic tells the readers how to introduce the topic, how to develop different ideas and thoughts, and how to accommodate the several views on the topic concerned. The discussion of each topic is designed to make the readers think and formulate their own further ideas with the help of a number of examples and anecdotes relevant to each topic. At the end of each discussion, a set of quotes related to each topic has been given for further help and expansion of the readers’ vision—a crucial requirement for handling such essays.
